According to Devitt (1899-1902, 285), King Rory O'Conor of Connaught 'in 1298 … burnt the village of Mainham and put the inhabitants to the sword'. The 'village' was not located but was probably in the vicinity of the motte and bailey (KD014-007001-) and medieval ecclesiastical remains (KD014-006001- to KD014-006004-).

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
