Ennisboyne formed part of the episcopal lands of the diocese of Glendalough and may have been the site of an Early Christian church. It was probably run as an ecclesiastical manor and was first mentioned as a borough in 1597. The parish church of St Baoithin or Baithin (WI031-020001-) is referred to in 1322. (MacNeill 1950, 168; Bradley and King 1989, 44-5).
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.

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.
