What is recorded here

The road cuts the oval cashel at both ends, but the southern wall still stands tall in the level grassland. Inside that protected sector, a rectangular house and a smaller D-shaped hut remain visible among the stones. People may have built the larger space for living and the smaller one for storage or worship, yet the road now divides what the stones once kept whole.

In level grassland. Oval cashel (E-W 44.2m, N-S 38.6m), in fair condition, defined by a drystone wall. The td. boundary cuts the monument at E and W, and the enclosing element is best preserved to S of it. Within S sector of the interior are two structures: (a GA057-025001-) to W is a rectangular house (E-W; L 10.4m, Wth 6.4m), with an internal division, defined by a line of boulders and small stones; (b GA057-025002-) to E is a D-shaped structure (E-W; L 1.94m, Wth 1.05m) of similar construction, possibly a hut.
