What is recorded here

Bawn in Ludden More stands on a Limerick knoll, wrapping a ruined castle inside a scarped earth-and-stone box. The castle wall reappears beneath sod at the south-west corner, while pasture and rain have softened the rest into a shallow tray. Whoever cut that tray wanted the castle kept, watched or remembered; the land still holds the shape of that choice.
In pasture, on top of knoll, enclosing remains of castle (LI023-006----). Sub-rectangular area (24.5m N-S; 12.5m E-W) defined by earth-and-stone scarped edge (Wth 4m; H 1.0m) on N, E and S sides and by field boundary on W side. Castle (LI023-006----) in SW-corner and remains of its sod covered wall form W-end of S-scarp. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 November 2013
