Situated towards the bottom of a gentle S-facing slope. An early ecclesiastical site which may have had an oval ecclesiastical enclosure (WA008-030002-) originally, but this is now truncated at S by an E-W field bank. There is a mound (diam. 5.5m; H 0.3m) towards the centre of the enclosure.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record WA008-030006
