In pasture, at S end of low limestone ridge. Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) on 1841 OS 6-inch map, is now largely covered by dense overgrowth. However, as far as could be ascertained site is enclosed by earth-and-stone bank (ext. H 0.75m). This is similar in construction to surrounding field boundaries, which abut it at SW, NW and NE. According to local information inside this is scarped edge defining circular area. A field boundary which abutted enclosure at SE has been removed so that site now occupies NW corner of large pasture field. Field clearance boulders have been dumped along external face of earth-and-stone bank at E. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011

H 2.4m), heavily masked by overgrowth, is best preserved at WNW. Entrance (Wth 4.5m) at E. Field boundary skirts around SW arc with drain opening into fosse at SW. Interior, only accessible at edges due to vegetation overgrowth, appears to rise gently towards centre; debris (including shell of old car) has been dumped against inner bank face at NW.

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

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.
