In undulating rough pastureland with limestone outcrops with wide views to S-W and within an extensive multiperiod field system (CL009-001001-). Not listed in the SMR (1992) or the RMP (1996).

H 0.2-0.5m) of earth and stone, but no evidence of burnt stone was visible when inspected in 1998. The sunken, nettle-covered interior (6m E-W; 4.5m N-S) is lower (D c. 0.5m) than the surrounding ground outside. Summary by: Gearóid Conroy and Conn Herriott Date of upload: 5 December 2022
