H 3m) NW-E, but the fosse is reduced to a berm (at NW: Wth 2m) and the outer bank to a scarp (at NW: Wth 4m; H 2m) elsewhere. There is an entrance through the inner (Wth of base 1.5m) and outer (Wth of base 2m) banks and a causeway (H 0.35m) over the fosse at ESE. There is a large old quarry hole (diam. 8m; D 0.9m) inside the inner bank at NW.

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.
