Recorded monuments

• MA080-016 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on elevated ground. The rath and the fields immediately surrounding it occupy the fairly level top of a hill or ridge with a fall of ground at NE and SW. Slightly raised roughly circular area (estimated diam. c. 30m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 4m at S, 3.5m at N; int. H 0.9m at S, 0.4m at N; ext. H 1.7m at S, 1.5m at N). An arc of fosse (Wth 2.5-3m) with an external bank (Wth 3.7m; int. H 1m; ext. H 0.5m) survives at SE−SW, but cannot be traced elsewhere, except for slight, short length of the outer bank at N. The rath has been incorporated into a later system of field fences, and the inner bank has been modified as a result, so that it is faced and topped with stone walling in parts, much of this now dilapidated and tumbled. The extant arc of outer bank has also been modified: it is topped and faced internally with stones and now serves as a field boundary. Several field walls radiate out from the rath on all sides, and at NE a disused trackway flanked by field walls extends to NE from the rath. The rath interior is level, much of it now obscured by clumps of brambles. The perimeter is thickly ringed with hawthorn, hazel and ash trees and brambles.

  Description
