What is recorded here

According to Lynch (1999, 88) while haymaking in the early 1980's he noticed 'the partial remains of a ringfort in a haggard belonging to the late Christopher Halligan who recalled being told by his father 'never to plough or interfere with that area'. This site may explain the 'Dun' element of the townland name. Visible as the faint cropmark of a possible circular enclosure on a recent aerial photograph (OSi Orthophoto 2005).
