What is recorded here

Marked as a small rectangular embanked enclosure (ext. dims c. 35m NW-SE; c. 30m NE-SW) constrained by straight field banks at NW and NE on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on a gentle SE-facing slope at the S foothills of Slievecoiltia Hill. It is not visible at ground level in a lawn and there is no local knowledge of an antiquity. It is listed as a moated site (Barry 1977, 219, WX 49), but because of its small area it may have been a ringfort. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 24 January, 2013
