What is recorded here

In the SW quadrant of a cashel (GA128-022----). A grass-covered stone wall runs across the interior of the cashel from N to S; adjoining it at SW is a grassed-over rectangular stone structure (L c. 8.5m; Wth c. 5.5m) with opposing entrances at NW and SE. It appears to be a later feature and may be a possible animal shelter.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record GA128-022001
