What is recorded here

Immediately W of the Grand Canal. A rectangular enclosure is marked on the 1841 edition of the OS 6-inch map. On the 1909 edition, only the E corner (C c. 35m NE-ESE) is marked. The site has been partially destroyed but remains of the bank survive at E and SE. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 17 December 2007
