What is recorded here

A ringfort in this townland was re-used in the 1590s and lost by a Capt. Green to the Irish (Cronin 1980, 118). It has not been identified, but any of four monuments is possible (RO004-034----; RO004-035----; RO004-036----; RO004-037----) although none of them shows any signs of it.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
