What is recorded here

On a low NE-SW ridge, in tillage. An unenclosed overgrown, rectangular area (20m NW-SE; 10m NE-SW) is densely covered with hazel, boultry and thorn bushes, with a good deal of dead and decaying vegetation underfoot. A plain headstone noted in 1986 (SMR file) is no longer visible, but is probably obscured by the very dense overgrowth.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record KD026-006
