Very little trace of the enclosure shown on the 2nd edition of the OS 6-inch map survives. A roughly circular area 25m-30m dropping sharply on the N and W sides to the river flood plain probably indicates the site. It was situated in good pasture with restricted views.

A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
