At a bend in the road on the SW slope of the Dranagh Mountains. A sub-circular enclosure (diam. c. 45m) surrounded on W by a wall of similar construction to surviving field walls in locality, E side has been replaced with a post and wire fence. J. Brindley (pers. comm.) suggested it may be a cashel.
