What is recorded here

In pasture, on a plateau. A circular area (c. 39m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 1.6m; ext. H 1.8m) SSE-ESE and by a scarp ESE-SSE. The level interior, which is overgrown in places, is raised slightly in the SE sector. There is a possible entrance at WSW and a cattle gap at NW. The bank is disturbed along the W and S arcs. There is a possible souterrain (KE058-057001-) in the interior. Compiled by: Elizabeth Byrne, Ursula Egan and Sheila Ronan, Archaeological Survey Unit, University College, Cork.
