This site was located within the N9/N10 Kilcullen to Waterford road scheme along Contract 2, Phase 4B, Knocktopher to Powerstown, and represented a shallow circular gully with internal post-holes. This possible structure had an entranceway at the east. A pit which was to the north of the structure contained sherds of a prehistoric pottery vessel.
