• SL020-074 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Comprises an irregularly shaped enclosure defined by an earthen bank, on top of which a stone bank has been constructed (Max. Diam. 34m). There were no surface indications of an outer ditch prior to excavation. The proposed Ballysadare-Collooney Bypass clipped the E edge of the ringfort and it was this area that was excavated in 1995 (95E105). Excavations of the E edge produced evidence of a univallate ringfort with an earthen bank and an roughly V-shaped outer ditch (Wth 3.5m, D 2m) cut into the subsoil and bedrock. This gave a total height/depth from bank top to ditch base of approximately 3.5m. Finds of animal bone were recovered from the ditch. An entranceway was uncovered to the SE (Wth 3.2m). Here the two ditch termini became shallower and narrower before terminating altogether. This consisted of a platform of bedrock and subsoil, sloping upwards from the exterior to the interior. The bank also decreased in height and width at this point (Opie H. 1995). Compiled by: Geraldine Stout Date of upload: 16 August 2013
