A large enclosure is depicted on the 1st (1840) ed. OS 6-inch map (diam. 107m N-S; 120 E-W) as being enclosed by a bank. A length of bank (c. 30m) is missing in the NNE sector and a well is depicted immediately outside the bank in the NE sector. A townland boundary runs NE-SE through the centre of the enclosure. The enclosure E of the townland boundary is under forestry and not accessible. The W part of the enclosure is under grass and the outline of the fosse is visible on the OS Ortho imagery.
