Situated on a level landscape with a small NNE-SSW section of a canalised stream c. 40m to the SE. It was first identified by G. F. Mitchell (O’Kelly 1954, 152). An area of broken and burnt stone (dims 12m NE-SW; 7m NW-SE) was visible in a ploughed field in 1970 (SMR file). Archaeological testing (17E0658) by J. Whittaker c. 90m to the NW at the closest point produced no related material (excavations.ie 2018:208). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 10 July 2007 Amended: 22 November 2021
