Geophysical Survey carried out in 2000 and 2001 in the fields to the S of Durrow church (OF009-005013-) and graveyard (OF009-005009-) identified the remains of two possible ring barrows (OF009-005028-) which appear to have been cut across by the later monastic enclosure (OF009-005003-) at S (O'Brien 2012, 121).
