The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in fields to the W of Nenagh Mart, behind St Patrick's Terrace on O'Growney Street. A number of nine possible barrows (TN020-099/008) show up on aerial photographs (OSAP 3585, 16.5.1986). These could also have been formed from cattle feeding rings, though the variation in dimensions suggests otherwise.
No surface remains visible, ring-barrow only visible on aerial photograph (OSAP 3585, 16.5.1986).
