What is recorded here
Marked on the 1841 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a subcircular enclosure. On the 1908 edition, a curving field boundary (C c. 40m) indicates the line of the site from E-S. No visible surface remains.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
