• LF019-058 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In level, low-lying pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded that, although largely levelled, the outline of a bank of earth and stone with an external fosse, enclosing a roughly circular area (diam. c. 38m), could still be traced. The original entrance was not recognisable. Further levelling has since occurred and the monument is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 23 November 2011
