Definitely approach this one from above. From the barrow head down the hill towards the Ballybetagh road and to you left. Seeing this come into view is great. The walls remain to a height of about 1m and within it you can see the rings and lines of stones that mark out rooms and buildings inside. It is about 60m in diameter with an entrance to the south. From its position on the slope of the hill it can only have been built to watch over the road below, whih leads to one of the passes through the Dublin Mountains.
