Sunday, 10th October 2004

I stopped off at the abbey ruins mainly to look at Knocknashee (County Sligo) from the east. There is nothing remarkable about the graveyard or ruins, but I did notice this rath to the north of the compound. It is about 30m in diameter with a 50cm raised bank around its edge.
