Description
On a N-facing slope in a ploughed field. No visible surface trace of a hachured feature marked on the 1922 edition of the OS 6-inch sheet survives. Cartographic evidence suggests that it was a pit. As it is of post-AD 1700 date it does not come within the remit of the Archaeological Survey of Ireland. Compiled by: Olive Alcock Date of upload: 9 July 2014
