The National Monuments Service's description

A 'Vault' is depicted on the 1837 edition of the OSi 6-inch map in the ENE sector of the monastic enclosure (LF021-048----) at Inchcleraun, and may be the remains of a burial vault of uncertain antiquity. The outline of this vault is visible today as low grass-covered wall-footings.
