Description
Described by Orpen (JRSAI 1908, 18) as 'a circular fort with a very slight rampart and outer ditch. It is about 80 yards in diameter, and rises gradually on all sides to the centre, about 10 feet high. There is a tochar or causeway leading to it from the direction of Annamoe. It was probably a Celtic island-fortress, and had no connexion with Castlekevin.' When inspected by ASI in 1989 it was described as 'a natural mound of gravel and sand' which had been extensively quarried (SMR file).
