- SL015-010001: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL015-010001-. Situated on a prominent N-facing slope of E-W orientated ridge in pasture. Raised circular area (diam. c.28m) enclosed by a broad flat-topped internal bank of earth and stone (Wth 4-4.15m; int. H 0.3-0.7m). At the external base of the internal bank is a broad flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 4.8m-5.1m). Immediately outside the fosse is a second broad flat-topped bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.35-4.5m; int. H 2.5-2.8m) and an external broad flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 5m; D 1-1.3m). The internal bank is best preserved E-SSE where it contains more rubble stone than elsewhere. The inner side of the internal bank is revetted with limestone slabs laid on edge giving a vertical inner face to the bank E-SE. The external fosse is best preserved SE-NNW and is mostly infilled and barely visible NNW-SE. A break (Wth 4.5m) in the internal bank, with a causeway across the first fosse and a corresponding break (Wth 4.5m) in the second bank and a causeway across the external fosse, marks the position of the original entrance. The N edge of the causeway is revetted with two courses of limestone blocks where it spans the innermost fosse. A very disturbed kerb consisting of a single row of limestone blocks extends from the N side of the entrance break in the internal bank into the interior. A large rectangular conglomerate block (dims L 1.7m; T 0.44m; H 0.45m) lies at a right angle to the W end of the kerb. The remains of a souterrain (SL015-010002-) are located in the internal bank at W. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 21 April 2011

Located in the inner bank of Lisduff rath (SL015-010001-) on the W side of the interior.

The entrance (Wth 0.8m; H 0.35m) is lintelled with a limestone slab but the passage is blocked with earth. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 21 April 2011

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.
