  Marked on the 1838 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a subcircular enclosure (max. diam. c. 40m NW-SE) with a possible mound in the interior at W. The townland boundary between Capponellan and Clonageera bisects the enclosure on a NW-SE axis. Only the E half of the enclosure is indicated as a semi-circular tree plantation on the 1906 edition of the OS 6-inch map. The area where the enclosure was depicted on the 1838 6-inch map was subsequently planted with trees as indicated on the 1906 edition of the OS 6-inch map. The enclosure was situated on a ridge. Today there are no visible surface remains. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Laois' (Dublin Stationery Office, 1995) compiled by P. David Sweetman, Olive Alcock and Bernie Moran. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
