This one in Gortalassa, County Kerry, has none of that. When surveyors recorded it in the 1840s, they noted it simply as a rath "which is not known by any particular name." It has drifted through the centuries without so much as a word attached to it.

The site sits in pasture on a southwest-facing slope, and what survives is only partly what would once have been there. A ringfort, or rath, was typically a roughly circular enclosure defined by an earthen bank and an outer ditch, or fosse, used as a farmstead during the early medieval period, roughly between the fifth and twelfth centuries. Here, the enclosure is roughly semicircular, measuring about 15.4 metres northwest to southeast, with a curving bank that still stands around 0.7 metres high on its outer face, though only 0.2 metres on the interior. A faint trace of the fosse remains visible along the western arc. The straight southeastern side of the enclosure, running some 28 metres, is formed not by an earthwork at all but by a field boundary, which raises the question of whether the original circuit was always incomplete on that side, or whether the boundary simply absorbed whatever earthwork once stood there. The interior of the enclosure slopes down toward the east-southeast. Ordnance Survey maps from both 1846 and 1897 show the same semicircular outline at a slightly larger estimated scale of around 18 metres, suggesting the form has remained broadly stable across at least a century and a half of recorded observation.
