Easily accessible, just 20m inside a field and side by side these two large mounds ar pretty overgrown, but in fair condition.
The bank running around the top makes of each rath is still very evident, but they are fairly small. Perhaps the two were used later as a dwelling simultaneously, or the northern one was out grown and the other then built.
The northern one is smaller at 2m high and 18m in diameter, the larger one being 3m high and 25m across.
