What is recorded here

Situated on a low rise, in pasture, with good views of the surrounding landscape. In NW quadrant of ringfort (WM038-033----) are the remains of a small square-shaped house site defined by stone walls. The walls are surrounded by loose stone which probably represents collapse from the upper walls. The monument is densely overgrown rendering close examination difficult. Ringfort and house site levelled in the early 1980s. Not visible today on Digital Globe aerial photography.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record WM038-033001
