• MA071-182 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on a rise with very good views over a gently undulating landscape of rough pasture and wettish ground, with the Trimoge River 400m to NE. Roughly circular, slightly raised area (37.8m E−W; 35m N−S) defined on the N half by a dilapidated bank/scarp (ext. H 1.3m at NNW, 0.8m at W) and on the S half by an earth and stone bank (Wth c. 2m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 0.4m), adapted to serve as a field boundary and topped with a low stone wall at S. Several large boulders –most likely field clearance -are piled along the bank/scarp. The interior is level, but ground surface is uneven and hummocky. It is crossed centrally by a field wall on an ESE−WSW axis. Roughly in the centre of the interior, there is a low circular rise (6.5m E−W; c. 7m N−S; H 0.4m) with a slightly hollow centre. It is obscured by long grass and brambles and is crossed centrally by the E−W field wall. A low area in the scarp at NE is flanked on each side by an upright slab, possibly an original entrance. Another possible entrance is at E where a gap (Wth 3m) now allows tractor access to the S half of the interior. The rath is ringed with hawthorn. Several clumps of brambles are spreading across the interior. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 24 September 2021

• MA080-022 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, prominently sited on at the NE end of a rise, where the ground falls away steeply. Good views, particularly to NW, and S–SE along the valley of the Glore River which is 150m to S. Views are restricted by gently rising ground to E. This possible rath is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a circular embanked enclosure and on the 1919 edition as an oval hachured enclosure. It has been levelled, but the outline of a slightly raised oval area (23.5m NE–SW; 26.8m NW–SE) can still be discerned, defined by a broadly sloping scarp (H 1.5m; Wth slope 6-7.5m) which merges with the natural ridge slope. At SE–S the scarp has been subsumed into a later field fence, obscured by brambles. The entrance may have been on the E arc where the slope is lower.
