What is recorded here
Situated on a slightly undulating landscape with, with a W-E section of the Nanny River on the S side of a collection of barrows and enclosures but the river turns NNE to the E of the area. From 2016 Noel Meehan has been recording cropmark enclosures in the Keenoge area on a drone-mounted camera, and he has identified this concentration of barrows and enclosures in Deenes townland. This central feature is a barrow (int. diam. c. 5m; ext. diam. c. 15m) defined by three fosse features. It is surrounded by three ring-ditches outside its perimeter SE-SW.
