What is recorded here
Situated on the W face of a low N-S ridge overlooking the Mulkear River to the W. Present remains consist of a roughly circular area covered in dense overgrowth with no evidence of an enclosing element. Rock outcrop protrudes from the surface of the interior. Of doubtful antiquity; dense cover of vegetation makes detailed examination impossible.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
