What is recorded here
In undulating meadowland. A hachured feature marked on the 1944-5 revision of the OS 6-inch map proved on inspection in 1984 to be an oval depression overgrown with trees and bushes. It appeared to be a disused sand or gravel quarry. As it is of post-AD 1700 date it does not come within the remit of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland.
