Listed as 'Earthwork site' in the SMR (1990) and RMP (1997). Depicted by hachures, as a subrectangular area (c. 30m N-S; 55m E-W) abutting the S side of the Galey River, on the 1939 OS 6-inch map.

Internal diameter 34m E-W This site is situated immediately S of the Galey River, and good views are afforded in all directions. The Galey was widened and deepened a few years ago and the subsequent rubble dumped in the interior of this site, distorting the N sector completely. What remains today is a semi-circular area enclosed by an earthen bank which ranges from 1.8m-4.4m in width at the base. At its highest point it is 1.2m above the surrounding land and .8m above the interior. Very slight traces of an exterior fosse c 2m wide and .4m deep can be noted to the NE. The interior is at a slightly higher level than the surrounding land. Contained in the W sector is a semi-circular rise 4.4m x 4m internally and .5m high, with a depression at the centre 2.9m in diameter and .3m deep, which suggests the existence of a souterrain (KE010-028001-).

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. 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.
