• CV014-001 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on level low-lying ground on the W bank of the Woodford River, with a small relict channel of the river just to its W. This is a circular grass-covered raised area (diam. c. 22m) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (at N: Wth 3.1m; int. H 0.7m) which is largely reduced to an overgrown scarp (H 0.7m) S-NW, but the perimeter has been removed elsewhere. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 1 December 2017

• CV014-002 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Raised circular area (int. dims. 29.1m NNE-SSW; 26.4m WNW-ESE) enclosed by an earthen bank. From SSW-NNW bank has been modified and incorporated into the field boundary. Elsewhere it has been levelled but its outline is still identifiable. An earlier report (OPW 1969) recorded traces of an outer fosse and suggested that the original entrance may have been at SE. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
