Natural circular mound (diam. c. 100m; H c. 6m) to the S of Mt. Kennedy House. The site rises steeply on all sides. Half-way up the slope there is a wide berm (Wth 9-14m). Above this the site rises to a circular flat top (diam. 28.5m). The site may be a natural feature converted for use as a motte but subsequently landscaped, probably in the 18th century.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
