- KE058-096 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on a low hill, immediately S of a lane. A circular area (30m E-W; 29m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.35m; int. H 0.52m; ext. H 1.45m) WNW-N and NNE-SE and by a scarp (H 1.25m) SE-WNW and N-NNE. A possible entrance in the NW arc is heavily covered with overgrowth. There are also gaps in the bank at W and SE. Field boundaries radiate from the bank externally along the SE and NW arcs. A lane skirts the bank NW-SE externally. There is external stone-facing along the bank at NE. The concave interior slopes gently up to the bank. There is a possible souterrain (KE058-096001-) in the NE quadrant.

- KE058-096001 Souterrain
Description
In a rath (KE058-096----). According to the landowner, there was an opening close to the bank in the NE quadrant of the rath, but it has been infilled. A low mound (6m N-S; c. 6m E-W), covered by overgrowth, marks the location of the opening.

- KE058-097 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, on a SE-facing slope, towards the top of a low hill. An arc (C c. 25m) of an earth and stone bank (Wth 2.8m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.25m) SW-ENE abuts the N side of a linear NE-SW field boundary. The bank is evident only as a low rise SW-NW. There is a cattle gap through the bank at N. Some tree and bushes grow along the bank. The interior slopes gently down to the SE. There is no visible surface trace of the bank to the S of the field boundary. The possible rath is indicated on the 1894 OS 6-inch map as a hachured arc NW-ENE with its ENE terminal abutting the linear NE-SW field boundary.
