The OS Letters (O'Flanagan 1928, 81) refer to a large ringfort in this townland which could be this site or another in the adjacent field to E (Killoughter, (WI019-023----). Not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997).
