What is recorded here

This possible enclosure is not indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map or on the 25-inch plan. It is indicated on the 1930 OS 6-inch edition as an arc of hachuring (L c. 37m) curving N−SE in the SW corner of a rectangular field –it is unclear if it represented an enclosure. This area has been disturbed by quarrying and there is no evidence of an enclosure at ground level.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record MA072-030
