- MA030-015 Ringfort - rath
Description
In pasture, located on the S end of a roughly N–S rise in gently undulating terrain, with good views. This rath consists of a circular area (c. 20m N–S), not noticeably raised, defined by an earthen bank. Dense overgrowth impeded the inspection. The bank appears most substantial (Wth over 3m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 0.8m) on the N half; at SE it is rather low and degraded internally, but has a more pronounced external slope (ext. H 1.3m). The bank includes, and is topped by stones, which may be the result of its incorporation into a later system of field boundaries. A field fence abuts the bank at W, and another field fence lies immediately adjacent at N–NE. A possible gap (Wth c. 1.5-2m), largely obscured by overgrowth, at E may be the original entrance. Interior obscured by scrub; perimeter ringed with ash and hawthorn trees, gorse and brambles. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 12 April 2018
- MA030-040 Enclosure
Description
Located on a rise in undulating average pasture. This enclosure is not shown on the 1837 OS 6-inch map; it is depicted on the 1930 edition as a circular embanked area (diam. 15-20m). According to local information, it was levelled during land reclamation in the first half of the 20th century. There are no visible remains at ground level.
