On a high, prominent hill affording panoramic views in all directions. A raised oval area (35.4m NE-SW; 31.9m NW-SE) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone (Wth 6.2m; H 0.2-1m) with a wide, shallow, partially waterlogged external fosse (Wth 6.9m; D 0.4m). It is divided into roughly equal portions by a NE-SW field boundary, which is also the townland boundary. Adjacent to the NW side of this is a modern laneway. To the SE (in Cartrongolan) the fosse has been largely infilled but its outline is still identifiable. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.

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.
