That division, practical and indifferent to the site's age, is one of the more quietly telling details about a rath that has otherwise been left largely to its hillside on the lower northern slopes of Knocknanacree, on the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry.

A rath, sometimes called a ringfort, is an enclosed farmstead of the early medieval period, typically dating from roughly the fifth to the twelfth century. Most consisted of a circular earthen bank surrounding a domestic interior where a family would have lived, kept animals, and stored food. This particular example is univallate, meaning it has a single enclosing bank rather than the two or three concentric rings seen at more elaborate sites. The bank here survives to a maximum height of 1.1 metres and encloses an interior measuring approximately 21 metres north to south and 24 metres east to west. The original entrance gap, 1.5 metres wide, is still legible at the northeast, with one side defined by a single upright stone, a modest but durable marker that has outlasted whatever timber structure or gate once occupied the opening. No other features are visible in the interior today, and the field wall that bisects the site has made any reading of the original ground surface more complicated. The site sits within the wider Corca Dhuibhne landscape of the Dingle Peninsula, an area unusually dense with prehistoric and early medieval monuments, and was recorded as part of the Dingle Peninsula Archaeological Survey published by J. Cuppage in 1986.
