Two small houses are marked on the Down Survey (1656-8) parish map of Killilane or St. Helen’s at a townland called Windmill and Allans Ring, bur ‘Ring’ is probably a mistake for ‘Bing’ as the townland includes Greenore Point (Hore 1949, 45). The name Bing is derived from the Irish binn – a peak or promontory. The precise location of this house is not known.

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.
