A poorly preserved, partially dug-away site, comprising a circular area (diams. 1.8m N-S; 1m E-W) defined by a very shallow fosse (Wth 2.3m; D 0.1m) and low, outer, earthen bank, ENE-SE and S-NW. The interior contains a trigonometrical station at SW. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
A ring-barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age, and part of a small barrow group. Its location and association with another ring-barrow suggest a local funerary landscape of significance during the Bronze Age.
