What is recorded here

On a S-facing slope, c. 90m SW of the Kilkenny to Waterford railway line and c. 300m W of a tributary of the River Nore. Indicated as a wooded circular area (diam. c. 42m) on the 1st (1839-40) ed. OS 6-inch map with a 'Turret' and on the 1945-6 revision with a 'Turret (in Ruins)'. It was located c. 170m to the rear of the 18th-century Inch House and was probably a tree-ring, a designed landscape feature associated with Inch House demesne. Inch House is now demolished. Both the tree-ring and turret (KK019-035002-) were removed during the construction of Purcellsinch industrial estate and a large factory now occupies the site.
