A diagonal fosse divides the rectangular enclosure into two segments. The mound of stones over the site of the former 'Abbey' (SMR CW008-004001-) is located within the north-western segment of the enclosure. Further banks are fosses are located to the north and east of the rectangular enclosure. Compiled by: Dr Gillian Barrett for the Archaeological Survey of Ireland. Date of upload: 15 April 2011
