National Monument in state guardianship No. 368. Situated within a small walled enclosure in the S corner of a field on a gentle N-facing slope. A subrectangular cairn (dims. 13m x 10m) incorporating a gallery (L 7.5m) aligned NW-SE. The gallery consists of a small antechamber (dims. 0.8m x 0.5m) at the NW separated by a low sill from the main chamber (L c. 6m) which widens (uncharacteristically) towards the SE. The gallery is surrounded by inner walling which follows the shape of the gallery sides and curves around the SE end. A single displaced roofstone lies in the gallery. During excavation in 1937, a number of large slabs laid around the tomb were uncovered in the base of the cairn. The finds included bone, sherds of coarse pottery and two stone discs. Two halves of a sandstone mould for a bronze looped spearhead were found in the base of the cairn at the E side, presumably as a result of disturbance. The cairn originally survived to a height of 1.5m, but material was taken from it to build the protective wall which now surrounds it.

Situated on a gentle S/SE-facing slope. Circular area (diam. 27m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3m; H 0.6-1.5m), about two thirds of which survives to the E of a NW-SE field boundary which traverses the site. There is no trace of the ringfort to the W of the boundary. There are two gaps, at the NW (Wth 2m) and SE (Wth 1.5m), at the junction with the boundary. No indication of an external fosse or internal features. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997).

Situated at a break in a marked NE-facing slope. Poorly preserved circular enclosure (diam. 28m) defined from W to NW by a rubble wall (Wth 1-1.6m; H 0.8-1m) with a revetment of upright slabs and small boulders and at SE by an arc of loose stones and boulders. At the SW the perimeter has been incorporated into field boundaries while the NE boundary has been demolished and the spoil dumped in the interior. No indication of an external fosse, an entrance or internal features.
