Not far from Ballymaddock Castle, a fine old rath may yet be seen and in a direction leading to the gate, by which the field is entered from the road. In this place also, springing corn or grass is noticed in Summer to have assumed a tinge of deeper verdure and of higher growth that in other parts of this same field. Human remains in have been discovered there, and many think the place must have furnished a site for some battle, not known in historic records (O'Hanlon and O'Leary 1907, vol. 1, 276; Dooley, 31).

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
