Recorded monuments

• LE025-065 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  This was described in 1991 as a rath consisting of a grass-covered circular platform (diam. 40m N-S; 39m E-W; H 0.3-0.9m) defined by slight traces of an earthen bank (max. int. H 0.1m), a flat-bottomed fosse (Wth of top 4.5-5.5m at N and S to 7-9m at E and W; Wth of base 2.5m at N to 5m at W; D 0.3-1m), and an overgrown external bank (Wth 5m; int. H 1m; ext. H 1.2m) with an outer fosse (Wth of top 7.3m; Wth of base 3.4m; D 1m). The outer bank and fosse survived only NE-ESE, the monument being curtailed elsewhere by field banks. There was an entrance (Wth 2.7m) at SE. The monument appears to have been completely removed (Bing 2013). The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 6 February 2017
