Marked as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35m) only on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6 inch map, and situated just off the crest of the N-facing slope of an E-W ridge. It is visible as an oval grass-covered hollow (dims. 26m NW-SE; 18m NE-SW).
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.
