• KK012-028 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  A circular area (diam. c. 34mm) enclosed by low, earthen bank and shallow external fosse, best preserved on S, E and W. Trees and scrub are growing around the perimeter. On the 1900 revision of the OS 6-inch map a field boundary is indicated running along the NE edge of the monument. This field boundary has subsequently been removed. A relatively modern house has been built c. 26m to the W of the ringfort and the E boundary of the garden runs NNE-SSW along the W side of the monument.

A circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m) indicated on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map but not on the subsequent 1900 revision which suggests it was levelled between 1839 and 1900. There are a number of enclosures (KK012-030----; KK012-031----; KK012-032----; KK012-033----) nearby c. 40m to the E, c. 160m to the NE, c. 140m to the E and c. 250m to the SE respectively, which are also indicated on the 1st ed.
