The National Monuments Service's description
Geophysical survey within Rath na Rí and W of the Forradh (ME031-033010-) identified at least six arcs of geophysical anomalies (Newman 1977, 88, figs 24, 25), but the evidence is too tenuous at the moment to conclusively identify all the individual monuments. This is described as a possible concentration of three or four pits in a limited area (diam. c. 20m) indicated by positive magnetic anomalies (ibid. 332).
