What is recorded here
On a low rise in pasture. Depicted as a large subcircular tree-planted enclosure on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and as a roughly circular enclosure on the 1914 ed. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded that, although levelled, the outline of the perimeter of the monument could still be traced defining a roughly circular area (diam. 45m). Further levelling has since occurred and it is not visible at ground level. Possibly a rath that was subsequently landscaped. O'Donovan
