In pastureland; associated with a rath (GA114-157----). On inspection in October 1956 it was noted that, according to local tradition, a souterrain here 'connects with one in the ring-fort [GA114-156----]100 yds [c. 30m]. N' (SMR file). No visible surface trace survived. On re-inspection in November 1982 local information revealed that when a drain or trench had been dug a few years previously a 'tunnel' which was c. '3 to 4 foot square [c. 0.9-1.2m]' was discovered under or beside the road. It was on a direct line between the rath (GA114-157----) and the road to the N. Again no visible surface trace survived.
