What is recorded here

In a flat, low-lying and poorly-drained N-S valley. D-shaped grass and rush-covered area (int. dims 50.2m N-S; c. 32.4m E-W) defined by a flat-bottomed fosse (Wth of top 3.5m-4.6m; Wth of base 2.3m-3m; D 0.1m-0.3m) with a stoney entrance causeway (Wth 4.2m) at SE. The W side is truncated by NNW-SSE field drains and banks, and there are tree stumps in the interior, particularly in the area immediately inside the perimeter. It is not marked on any map, but was probably created as a coppice in the later 19th century.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record RO042-170
