A bawn of sods was possibly erected at this location during the Plantation period. Water was apparently drawn from the nearby White Lough to fill its fosses. No visible remains at ground level (Davies 1948a, 116-7). It remains unplanted in a forest.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record CV017-039
