What is recorded here

Yes. An ecclesiastical enclosure in Laraghbryan East, near a possible castle and an early monastic site in County Kildare. It may have belonged to the church or monastic place rather than the castle.

In open, level, improved pasture c. 200m E of a possible castle site (KD005-008----) and c. 250m NE of an early monastic site (KD005-009001-), a medieval church (KD005-009002-) and a graveyard (KD005-009001-). Visible on a 1966 aerial photograph (CUCAP APE 8) as a short, curving arc of shallow fosse. It may mark the E limits (NE-E-SE) of a large enclosure (traceable L c. 60m; Wth 5.5m; D 0.4m), more likely to have been associated with possible pre-Norman monastic activity at nearby Laraghbryan (KD005-009001-) than with the possible castle (KD005-008----) to the W.
