There were traditions about an area known as 'Sean Dún', the old fort at Woodstown, which was demolished when the railway line was built and a large quantity of bones were discovered (Power, 1952, 367). This old fort could be a reference to the enclosure (WA009-006----) or the large enclosure with evidence of Viking and earlier occupation (WA009-019----).

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.
