On level, improved pasture, c. 130m N of a medieval church (KD005-009002-) and graveyard (KD005-009003-), with an enclosure site (KD005-021----) c. 200m to the E. Indicated as 'Ca. Rs.' (Castle Residence) on Taylor's 1783 map of County Kildare, but not recorded on the 1st (1838) or current (1939) eds. of the OS 6-inch map. In 1985, some loose dressed stones, a few with mortar attached, (the result of recent dumping according to the landowner), were noted together with some low linear earthworks running N-S across the field and visible on a 1986 aerial photograph (CUCAP APE 8) (SMR file). There is no longer any visible surface trace of these features. However, traces (noted in 1985) of the fosse of a possible enclosure (KD005-021----) do survive.
