Associated with the remains of souterrain (s) (LH024-012001- and LH024-012002-), discovered in 1983 during the course of cutting a trench for sewerage. The site was recorded by Mr C. Manning (OPW) who supervised the digging of trial trenches in 1985 and discovered a small enclosure (LH024-012004-). It was c. 50m in diameter and was defined by a ditch (Wth 2.5m, D 1.8m). The burials were very scattered but were seen to be orientated E-W and were not slab-lined. The souterrain and the burials were enclosed by the ditch.
