The National Monuments Service's description
In reclaimed pasture, 74m SE of townland boundary with Gormanstown. Not marked on OSi historic maps. Potential cropmark site identified as a small circular differential growth of vegetation during examination of aerial photographs (BGE 1/10,000, 63) taken 03/11/1984 on the Bórd Gáis Éireann gas pipeline. No surface remains visible on OSi orthophotograph taken between 2005-12. No surface remains visible on Google Earth orthoimages. Doubtful antiquity.
See attached Google Earth orthoimage.
