The National Monuments Service's description
Due to an error in the SMR files this possible rath was recorded as levelled and not visible at ground level (Egan et al. 2005). It is, however, extant. It consists of a roughly circular area (diam. c. 35-40m) enclosed by a bank which has been incorporated into later field boundaries/hedgerows.
