What is recorded here

Large flat-topped mound (H at S c. 5.50m, W at top N-S c. 19m) which drops away steeply at S only, degraded at N and W. Appears to be a natural ridge adopted as a motte with a possible bailey (c. 30m E-W, c. 29m N-S) at W side. Site badly disturbed and no evidence of an enclosing ditch. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
