- TS050-003 Ringfort - rath
Description
On a NNE-facing slope of rising ground in an upland area overlooking Cahernahallia River to the NW, with a ringfort (TS050-004----) c. 200m to the S. A raised circular area (int. OS 6-inch map diam. c. 27m N-S; c. 31m E-W) enclosed by a poorly preserved earthen bank (top Wth 1.8m; base Wth 4m; ext. H 1.5m at N; int. H 0.2m) best visible at N and elsewhere reduced to a scarp (H 0.5m), with an external fosse (Wth 2.5m; ext. D 1m) best preserved from SW to W. A field boundary intersects the enclosing scarp from S to E on a NE-SW axis. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS050-004 Ringfort - rath
Description
On top of high ground with good extensive views in undulating countryside with a ringfort (TS050-003---) c. 200m to the N. A poorly preserved ringfort consisting of a circular area (diam. 39.7m N-S; 38.9m E-W) enclosed by a much degraded earth and stone bank (Wth 1.2m ; ext. H 0.3m; int. H 0.2m) which has been reduced to a scarp in places. An outer bank visible from SE through S to W is probably a later field bank enclosing the ringfort on this side only. A field boundary, which intersected the monument from E to N on a NW-SE axis as depicted on the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map, has been removed. A depression in the interior may represent disturbance associated with a trigonometric station which is depicted on the 2nd ed. OS 6-inch map.
