This enclosure is situated SE of Lissalussa (Lios an Losa) rath (KE020-070----). It is not marked on any edition of the OS maps. All that survives today is a semi-circular earthen bank which is cut on its NE side by a fieldbank running in a NW-SE direction. Another fieldbank cuts through the S sector in a SW-NE direction. The surviving enclosing bank is 5m-8m wide and .6m high. In 1969 the bottom of a quern stone and some bones were discovered on this site (National Museum of Ireland Archaeological Acquisitions 1969, 25).
