The National Monuments Service's description
According to Doyle (1981), 'There is a field in Greenridge (near Brownstown and Sandfordscourt) called the "Rath field". All this area is very flat and was once a marsh. There was once a rath there. It was removed about thirty years ago. Its seems safe to assume that it was not a very big rath. This rath was near a stream'. The precise location of this monument within Greenridge townland is unknown.
