What is recorded here

According to Bradley et al. (1986a, vol. 1, 43), 'It is probable that there were quays on the Barrow from at least the late thirteenth century when the passage of boats from New Ross to Athy is first referred to (Mills 1905, 202). Although their precise location is not recorded, a likely location would appear to be S of the bridge (KD035-0220008-) possibly in the vicinity of the present Barrow Quay.'

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.
