The National Monuments Service's description
A number of prehistoric pits and postholes were exposed immediately to the E of 'Round O Rath' (CW006-001----) during the development of a golf-course in 2006 (Excavation Licence number 06E0499). These features were preserved in situ. (McLoughlin C. 2009, 43). Monitoring in 2007 exposed further pits and post-holes which were excavated. Initial analysis of these suggested they were of Late Neolithic/Early Bronze Age date. (McLoughlin C. 2010, 21)
