The National Monuments Service's description
This record refers to a mound noted by Knox (1911, 211) in Cloonbullig townland. He provided scant detail, merely stating that it is a ‘small mound’ which ‘is supposed to have been inhabited’, rising out of marshy ground to SE of a larger mound (MA103-046001-), with the site of a castle (MA103-047----) c. 100m to N. The precise location of the mound is unknown.
