Situated close to the summit of a hill, on a NE-facing slope, in rolling pasture. According to Lynch (1909-11) mass was attended 'at a place called Poulanaffrin and Clashanaffrin (hole and trench of the mass), a disused and filled-in quarry' in the penal times. Described in the Ordnance Survey Name Books as 'a small pit about two chains in diameter c. 15 feet deep, placed on the face of a hill and round which grows a few Hawthorn bushes'. Survives as two conjoined shallow depressions (c. 50m NW-SE; D 1.5m) in the side of a hill, with a face of limestone rock visible from NE.
