- WM032-075 Ringfort - rath
Description
Described in 1977 as ringfort situated on a rise of ground in good pasture land with good views in all directions. The site consists of a roughly circular area (diam. C. 27m N-S; 34m E-W) defined by a defaced earth and stone scarp. Traces of a bank are visible running along the edge of the scarp in places and possible stone footings can be seen from W to NW edge of the scarp. A modern field fence running N-S has defaced the external face of the bank on the E side. A second field fence running E-W has defaced the external face of the bank on the S side. Field clearance debris has been dumped along the perimeter of the monument on the N and NE. Faint traces of an external fosse are visible only at NNE but it is impossible to be certain due to the field clearance debris. No entrance feature visible. The interior is heavily overgrown with thorn trees. The ground rises irregularly from the perimeter to the centre of the interior. Compiled by: Caimin O’Brien Date of upload: 11 March 2013
- WM032-076 Ringfort - rath
Description
The site is on an oval-shaped hillock with good views to the N and W. Site consists of a sub-oval shaped area (diam. c.30m N-S; 32m E-W) defined by a poorly preserved earth and stone bank with no traces of an external fosse. No entrance feature visible. The interior is very uneven and there appears to have been some dumping of field clearance debris in the centre of the monument. Slightly W of centre there is a small arc of stones around a slight mound of earth and stone. The archaeological significance of this feature is unclear. The interior is heavily overgrown with trees and bushes making examination of the monument very difficult. Compiled by: Caimin O’Brien Date of upload: 11 March 2013
