- SL013-022 Ringfort - unclassified
Description
Situated on a very slight NE-facing slope in pasture. Slightly raised circular area (dims. 26m N-S; 25m E-W) enclosed by a narrow earthen bank (Wth 4.25m; int. H 0.4m) which has been removed from NE-E, S-SW and WNW-NW. There is no fosse visible at ground level. From NW-NE the bank has been modified and incorporated into a curving field boundary. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Mark Keegan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL013-023 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated on a very slight E-facing slope in gently undulating pasture. Raised circular area (dims. 32m N-S; 30m E-W) enclosed by a narrow bank of earth and stone (Wth. 3.8m; int. H 0.75m). The bank is best preserved S-W where internal face is revetted with upright limestone slabs laid flat. The external fosse survives from NW-NNW and is infilled elsewhere. There are modern breaks in the bank at NW (Wth. 6m) and at SE (Wth. 5m). The enclosure is divided into two equal portions by a drystone wall aligned NW-SE. The interior has been quarried immediately within the bank at NW and WNW. Two features (SL013-023001- and SL013-023002-) interpreted in a 1991 field report as collapsed souterrain passages (SMR file) were shown to be quarry holes. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
