| This well defined medium sized motte is located just off the N81, north of the town of Ballon, County Carlow. It is about 20m in height and is very similar is size and proportion to Killeshin motte in County Laois. The top of the motte is level and about 10m in circumference with no visible signs of masonry, suggesting a timber structure. |
