One of a dense concentration of cropmarks of levelled monuments identified from several aerial photographic sources: Cambridge University Collection Aerial Photographs (CUCAP), Geological Survey of Ireland (GSI), Dr. Gillian Barrett’s Aerial Survey and OSi Orthophotos (KD034-007----, KD034-008----, KD034-009----, KD034-010----, KD034-011----, KD034-0120001-, KD034-012002-, KD034-027----, KD034-034----, KD034-035----, KD034-036----, KD034-039----, KD034-040----, KD034-041----, KD035-015---- and KD035-080----). The majority occupy a roughly rectangular area (c. 650m E-W; c. 350m) in level tillage, with two ‘outliers’ (KD035-0120001- and KD035-012002-) c. 250m to the S, and a third ‘outlier’ (KD034-027----) c. 220m to the NW.
KD034-012002- Visible on 1970 aerial photographs (CUCAP BDH 64 and 65) as the cropmark of fosse enclosing a semi-circular area (est. diam. c. 70m NW-SE) attached to the NE of a cropmark of a circular enclosure (KD034-012001-). Probably a field or annexe associated with a ringfort. No visible surface trace survives.
