- SL018-063 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated on a SE-facing slope overlooking a substantial river. Raised subcircular area (43.7m E-W; 39.5m N-S) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth c. 4m; H 0.3m; ext. H 1.25m at N, 1.8m at S). The bank barely rises above the interior for most of the circuit but has a pronounced external slope. The interior is level but with a very slight rise in the centre. There is a gap (Wth c. 2.5-3m) in the bank at N where interior level is lowest relative to exterior ground level and it may be the site of the original entrance. A farm track skirts the W side of the rath. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL018-064 Enclosure
Description
Situated at the W edge of a steep bluff overlooking a stream. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 12.5m) enclosed by a bank of earth and stone (Wth. 2m; int. H 0.3m). No fosse. Original entrance not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011

H 1.2m) with ephemeral remains of an external fosse (Wth 2.5-3m). The bank and fosse are truncated at S by an E-W field boundary, and a field drain (Wth 1.5m) abuts the outer edge of the fosse at E.
