Situated on low-lying poorly drained land with higher ground to the NE. Square shaped area (diam 38m N-S) defined by a scarp (H 2m), wide flat bottomed fosse (Wth 3m; ext. H 1m) with possible ramped entrance (Wth 3m) at E, with no evidence of an external bank. The site is not marked on the first two editions of the six inch maps which makes classification tentative. Its shape and location indicate that it is a moated site.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
