In undulating pasture, on the N slope of Knockroe Mountain and c. 100m S of the Glasheencorgoad stream (SMR file). A D-shaped area (c. 20m E-W), with a souterrain (KE065-095001-) just off-centre to the N, is indicated on the 1894 OS 6-inch map by a broken line NW-SSW and by a linear NNW-SSE lane on the straight SW side (L c. 22m). This possible rath is not visible at ground level, although it was noted that some reclamation has taken place in the field (SMR file). This may be 'Lios Cúláin', as noted by Ó Cíobháin (1978, 99). The opening to the souterrain is located within the interior of a hut site (KE065-095----). (O'Sullivan and Sheehan (1996, 398, no. 1207)
