What is recorded here

Moydow is not a distant myth, a private chamber or a hidden world. It is the living edge of An Clu, the place where the boundary becomes visible and human life is measured against that visibility. Carraig Ailigh, Binngeas and the lost places around Killaloe belong in the same book because they still show how the world works.

On a gentle N-facing slope in low-lying pasture. A report in 1975 (SMR file) noted that this raised circular area (diam. c. 23m) was enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone and an external fosse. Due to land-reclamation works, the bank has been levelled and the defining element is a scarp (H 1.2m) that has been modified from NE-E-SE where it is incorporated into the townland boundary. The fosse has been recut. The monument has been quarried away from ESE-S-SW. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
