What is recorded here

Poorly preserved ring-barrow which appears to have been partly excavated and damaged by fallen trees. Circular mound (diam. 14m N-S ) with central depression (probably the result of digging) enclosed by a wide shallow fosse (Wth 2m) with external bank (Wth 2m; ext. H 1.5m; int. H 0.8m). 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. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
