	The Forradh ('Ceremonial Seat') and [[Teach Cormaic]] ('Cormac's House') consist of two conjoined earthworks. Teach Cormaic, regarded in the medieval period as being the royal residence of the heroic king of Tara, Cormac mac Airt, may be a ringfort consisting of a circular area (about 70m in diameter) defined by two banks and an intervening ditch. The original entrance is in the northeast and is aligned on the eastern entrance to Ráith na Rí. Slightly off-centre is a low mound with a small hollow in the middle which may be the foundations of a house or perhaps the outline of a small barrow. [[Teach Cormaic]] is attached to the east side of the Forradh.		The Forradh ('Ceremonial Seat') and [[Teach Cormaic]] ('Cormac's House') consist of two conjoined earthworks.
