• KE066-046 Enclosure
  Description

  In a field recently cut for silage, on a level area towards the top of a NNE-facing slope. This enclosure is not visible at ground level. The cropmark of the fosse of a circular enclosure (diam. not possible to estimate) is clearly visible in an aerial photograph (OSAP, 3681) taken in 1983. Two archaeological test trenches excavated in June 2000, in advance of a housing development, revealed no trace of this enclosure (Kelleher 2002, 139).

• KE066-143 Ring-ditch
  Description

  A penannular ring-ditch (int. diam. 6.5m), with the entrance at SE was excavated in 2001 prior to the construction of a housing estate (Dunne 2003b, 160-1, listed as Ballydribbeen). The fosse (Wth 0.4-0.6m; D 0.01-0.16m) increased in width to 0.85m on each side of the entrance (Wth 3.06m). At the S end of the ring-ditch, close to the entrance, a shallow pit containing the cremated remains of an adult male was found. Small quantities of cremated bone were also found at the N end of the ring-ditch. Two small bone objects in the cremation may be the remains of bone pins. Finds included a single sherd of decorated Bronze Age pottery from the interior and a whetstone from the fosse.
