What is recorded here

Situated on the W face of a small natural ridge in slightly undulating grassland, with extensive views in all directions. The field fence which forms the townland boundary with Paddinstown Upper lies 50m to S. Depicted as a circular shaped enclosure on the 1837 ed. OS 6-inch map (approx. diam 36m E-W), the N quadrant of the site has been reduced to a scarp in the past (post-1837). An earthen bank and slight external fosse are visible curving from NE-S-W. The interior is level and featureless. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible running NE-SW outside the site to the NW. Compiled by: Frank Coyne and Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 13 February 2018
