What is recorded here
Located on a slight rise in a low-lying landscape, with an ENE-WSW stream c. 60m to the S. This is a subcircular area (dims. 41.5m N-S; 35m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank preserved as a field bank (Wth 1.7m; int. H 1-1.2m; ext. H 2.2m), with an outer fosse (Wth 2.5m; ext. D 0.8m) E-W-N that has been re-cut as a field drain. There is an entrance gap (Wth 2.5m) at SE, and the interior was planted with coniferous trees in 1988.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
