Within a possible rath (MA038-019001-). According to local tradition, the interior of the possible rath was used as a children’s burial ground, named ‘Lisheenarnagh’ on the 1838 and 1922 OS 6-inch maps. It was destroyed during land reclamation; there are no visible remains at ground level. There is a possible rath (MA038-020----) 40m to NE, and another children’s burial ground (MA018-018002-) within a possible rath (MA038-018001-) 180m to NNW.
