Marked on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on the N-facing slope of a low hill at the E foot of Rathcroghan ridge. An earthen bank (Wth 2.2m; H 0.6m) aligned NW-SE (L c. 1km) is separated by a berm (Wth 2.2m) at SW from a lower earthen bank (Wth 5m; H 0.3-0.5m) with traces of a drain (Wth 1.7m) outside it. This may have been part of the Tulsk-Bellanagare road (now N5) before the present road, looping S of the hill, was constructed before 1837 (OS 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map). (Waddell 1983, 41) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010

Situated just W of the summit of a low hill at the E foot of Rathcroghan ridge. Described as faint traces of an enclosure (diam. c. 40m) (Waddell 1983, 41, No. 47). It is not visible at ground level in pasture. Souterrain (RO022-063----) is just down the W-facing slope from it, and it is probably a rath. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010

Just W of the summit of a low hill at the E foot of Rathcroghan ridge. Three lintels of an inaccessible passage (L. 2.3m plus NW-SE) are visible on the surface. The probable rath (RO022-057062-) is at the top of the slope. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 24 August 2010
- RO022-057064: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CRO022-057064-.

H 0.9m) and outer fosse (Wth of base 2m; D 0.3m) WSW-N, with a scarp (H 0.4-0.9m) elsewhere. There are entrances at ESE (Wth 2.5m) and WNW (Wth 1.4m). Rath (RO022-057051-) is c. 240m to the NNW.

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
