This site was identified in the environmental impact statement as a possible cashel. Three trenches were dug to investigate the feature. It was found to be a crude enclosure with a stone-and-earth bank, constructed around a boulder core. This site may be associated with AR25 (No. 137, Excavations 2002, 02E1493), which lies to the south. No ditch or external features were uncovered.
