What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or ringfort in Ballybrennock, County Waterford, Ireland. The 1840 Ordnance Survey six-inch map marked a circular enclosure about 30 to 35 metres across. That same account placed the site in pasture on the crest of the southeast-facing slope of a northeast-southwest ridge and recorded that it was not visible at ground level during its examination.

The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
