Description
Internal diameter 25m N-S, 24m E-W This univallate rath is situated in the corner of a field SE of KE017-012----, on pastureland sloping NE to the River Feale. A fieldbank cuts this site to the NNE and another fieldbank runs along the SW to NW side. The site consists of a circular area enclosed by a well-defined earthen bank and exterior fosse. The enclosing bank ranges in external height from 2m-3m and .4m-3m above the interior. The fosse is best defined to the W though it can be identified for the whole of the site. It ranges 1m-2.6m in width and .4m-1.6m below the height of the surrounding land. Two main gaps appear in the bank to the E and W, measuring 4.6m and 2.6rn in width respectively. A possible outer bank can be identified to the E for c 14m. The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle.
