What is recorded here

This is the site of a natural ridge with a few trees planted on top. There is no evidence of any man made features on this ridge and there is no local tradition of any archaeological site in this area. Possibly a tre-ring or a natural hillock that was landscaped in the 18th-19th century.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record OF016-026
