• SL013-044 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  Situated on a SW-facing slope in pasture. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 22m) enclosed by a denuded earthen bank (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.3m). At the external foot of the bank from SE-S-SW is an external fosse (Wth 4m; D 0.4m). Elsewhere it has been infilled but its outline is identifiable from NW-SE. A break in the bank at SW (Wth 5m), which has been modernised, marks the original entrance. The underlying natural slope breaks across SW third of enclosure and the ground level of the interior has been raised and levelled to compensate fro this. The site is divided into approximately equal portions by a NW-SE orientated field wall. Compiled by: Mark Keegan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
