What is recorded here

Located on a natural rise. Shown on the 1840 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) encompassing a mill. This enclosure may have been constructed to keep cattle out from the sails of the windmill as was the case at the mills in Skerries (DU005-027001- ). Not visible at ground level (Healy 1975, 16).
