What is recorded here
In open, level tillage. Visible on a 1967 aerial photograph (CUCAP ATC042) as the cropmark of three concentric fosses (est. max. diam. c. 30m), but not visible at ground level in 1985 (SMR file). Probably the site of a multivallate ringbarrow.

A Neolithic ring-barrow, c. 2500–2000 BCE, indicated by concentric fosse cropmarks. Its presence suggests early burial practices and settlement in the Raheen Old area.
