- MA038-112 Enclosure
Description
In pasture, located on a rise. Shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a circular, ringfort-sized enclosure (diam. c. 25m), bisected slightly N of centre by a field boundary on a ENE–WSW axis, from which an second field boundary extended N through the NE quadrant of the interior. It is not shown on later map editions. At the location there is a drumlin-like rise across which an earth and stone field fence extends on a ENE-WSW axis. The enclosure is likely to have encompassed this natural rise, but no trace of any enclosing element is now evident. There is a rath (MA038-113----) c. 100m to NE.

- MA038-113 Ringfort - rath
Description
In undulating, average pasture, built against the SE side of a low rise, immediately to NE of which is a natural water-filled depression. This rath appears originally to have been roughly circular or broadly oval in plan, but is now penannular (28.5m NNE–SSW; c. 28-32m WNW–ESE), open to E. It is enclosed at S–NE by a substantial earthen bank (Wth 6.7m; int. H 1.45m at NNW, 0.4m at SW; ext. H 1.45m at NNW, 2m at SW); the enclosing element at NE–SE and part of the interior have been dug away. The rath interior now opens to E, where it merges with a flat-topped sub-rectangular area (c. 25m ESE–WNW; c. 14m N–S) that extends to ESE from the rath. This subrectangular area constitutes part of the natural rise on which the rath is sited. It is incorporated on E and S into field boundaries and bounded on N by a scarp (H 1.7m) formed from the natural fall of ground. While it is possible that it once formed an annex to the rath, much of the scarping and modification now evident appears to date to the relatively recent past. There is an enclosure (MA038-112----) c. 100m to SW. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 13 August 2019
