'The land is quite marshy and wet and is used as rough grazing for cattle at the moment. Several low banks of earth and stone also occur in this complex, but, as yet, their relationship to the barrows is unknown. Located on the west bank of a small river which is prone to flooding, c.200m from the coast in an area of marshy grassland......situated on the immediate north side of the above ring barrow [KE038-140----] is a small circular enclosure, measuring 16.0m N-S by 18.0m E-W in total diameter. The site consists of a low bank 1.00m in width and 0.30m in external height. A 2.50m wide break in the bank occurs at west-this may represent an entrance feature, or it may be a natural break in the bank. The interior of this enclosure has a slightly hollowed out appearance, resulting in the lowest level of the interior being c.0.75m below the level of the top of the enclosing element.'
Compiled by Michael Connolly for the Archaeological Survey of Ireland as part of a survey of the Lee Valley area in 1996-97.
