## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- MA071-030: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CMA071-030----. In pasture, prominently sited on top of a hillock with excellent views in all directions. Raised circular area (30.5m N–S; 29m E–W) defined by a substantial earthen bank and enclosed by a fosse with possible remnants of an external bank. The inner bank (Wth 4m at N, 5.9m at S; int. H 0.45-0.5m at N & S; ext. H 2.8m at N & S, 3.3m at W) has a pronounced external scarp, enhanced by the natural slope of the hillock, but is low internally with sections at E and SW reduced to a scarp. Stones protrude along the top of the bank. At NE–ENE a rough, intermittent kerb of large stones is evident at the base of the external slope of the bank. The fosse can be traced at SSW-E as a low terrace (Wth 1.6-2m at SW-N, 3.5-4m at E). At W–N the outer edge of the fosse is bordered by an earth and stone field fence (Wth 1.6m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 1.2m) that respects the curve of the rath and may preserve the line of an original external bank. A gap (Wth 1.4m) in the inner bank at SE appears to mark an original entrance, coinciding with a large break in the fosse and with a low rise or undulation that provides a natural causeway or access ramp. A row of stones, partly engulfed in overgrowth, extends from the E side of the entrance gap to SE for a few meters, set adjacent and parallel to a NW–SE field fence that abuts the rath at SE. The SW quadrant of the interior is at a slightly higher level to the rest of the level interior, demarcated on the E side a low irregular scarp (H 0.45m) and on the W side by a shallow, irregular-shaped depression (Wth c. 1-1.5m) which extends for 9m to SW towards the rath bank at SW. There is a slight, ill-defined hollow close to the inner face of the bank at S. The rath interior is grassy, with moderate gorse around the perimeter.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
