What is recorded here
Situated on a small natural ridge bisected by a field fence running NE-SW. Possible mound-barrow (WM008-014----) 140m to SW. Depicted as an earthwork on Larkin’s 1808 map of county Westmeath (NLI, MS 46,580), and as a quarry on the 1911 ed. OS 6-inch map. No visible remains of an antiquity at this location. The earthwork may have been related to post-1700 quarrying of the exposed bedrock.
