Internal diameter 32m N-S, 34.6m E-W Lisroe/Lios Rua (russet ringfort). This site is situated three fields NE of KE014-065----, and it has an extensive view of the surrounding area. A fieldbank runs along the exterior side of the NE sector. This univallate rath consists of a circular area enclosed by a bank and exterior fosse. The enclosing earthen bank is well defined and is, on average, 6.7m in width at the base. It rises to a maximum of 1.8m above the fosse and 1.2m above the interior. The exterior fosse is round bottomed and well defined. It is 1.6m-2.6m wide and .9m deep. The interior is at a higher level than the surrounding land, and access is gained by two entrances: one to the N measuring c5m in width, the second to the SSW measuring c3m wide.

Internal diameter 41m N-S, 40m E-W Situated four fields SW of KE014-023----, this univallate ringfort consists of a large circular area enclosed by a well-defined bank of earth and stone. The enclosing bank is c 7m wide at the base and rises to .6m-1.7m above the surrounding land and an average of .75m above the interior. In the NE-E sector of the interior are two semi-circular mounds curving in towards the bank. The NE one would appear to have a 1.8m wide opening to the S. About 4.5m SW of the second enclosure is a small mound, 1.7m x 2.8m. Extending out of this and curving N for c 10m is a depression 3.8m wide. Drystone walling is evident. At the end of this ridge is another small mound, 2.4m x 3m. In the SE sector just S of the ridge is another mound, 2.6m x 3m. These features could be the remains of the souterrain (KE014-065001-) marked as 'cave' on the 1842 OS map. In the SW sector there is a large semi-circular enclosure curved in towards the bank. It possibly had an opening to the NW, where there is a slight break in the bank, and both ends curve inwards. A possible c 4m wide entrance lies to the SW. The above description is derived from C.

- KE014-068: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CKE014-068----. This site is marked on the 1842 OS map as a semi-circular bank, which survives from the NW through W to SSE. It would appear to have been cut by a fieldbank running in a NW-SE direction.

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
