Recorded monuments

• LF008-008 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a gentle WSW-facing slope in pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a raised circular area (diam. c. 25m) enclosed by the slight remains of a low bank of earth and stone with vague suggestions of an external fosse. The original entrance may have been at S. It has since been levelled and only its outline, defined by a barely perceptible scarp (H 0.2-1m), is identifiable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
