What is recorded here

Much of the evidence is gone, but the field still remembers the shape: a round chamber, a smaller chamber beside it, and a threshold between them. People may have lived there, tended animals there, or simply avoided the place because it belonged to someone else. The soil has erased most of the argument, which is why the legend sounds so reasonable now.

The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Cropmark of circular enclosure (max. diam. c. 30m) with sub-rectangular annexe to NE, showing on aerial photograph (ACAP) (Buckley 1987, 20-1).
