Situated on level pastureland. Discovered in 1983 during the construction of a modern shed and recorded by the Ikerrin Survey. The remains consisted of an underground passage (L 7.1m; H 1m; Wth 0.5m) orientated on a NE-SW axis with a lintelled roof and drystone side walls located approximately 0.6m below ground level (OPW file 1983).
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
