Thatched houses are recorded on the terrier of the Down Survey map of Kilburne parish (1655-6) at Towergare. According to Power (1952, 364) a place called an Seana Shráid, or the old street, at Towergare could be interpreted as a village. A field is locally known as an Seana Shráid, but it has been broken into several others and there is no evidence of an antiquity.

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.
