• LF006-028 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a slight rise in gently undulating hilly pasture land. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. Described in 1976 (SMR file) as small subcircular enclosure defined by a substantial earthen bank with an external fosse. A number of gaps were visible in the bank but a causewayed one at NW appeared to mark the original entrance. Vague traces of cultivation ridges were evident within the interior. The monument was levelled in 1990 and is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 14 November 2012
