In improved pasture, on former grounds of Mount Prospect House (KE058-155----), on a S-facing slope. Reported to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland as the low remains of an arc of bank. Levelled remains of gently curving bank (long axis c. E-W; L c. 60m). This bank (overall Wth 6.6m; Wth at top 2m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 0.7m) curves gently (long-axis NW-SE) to NW at its western end. This is location of former entrance avenue (long axis N-S) to Mount Prospect House, which is depicted upon all OS historic mapping. A level terrace is located upslope to N. The curvilinear earthwork and terrace may be the remains of landscape features associated with Mount Prospect House.
