What is recorded here

Marked as a circular embanked enclousre (ext. diam. c. 40-45m) on the 1840 and 1927 eds. of the OS 6-inch map and situated in pasture on a S-facing slope. Described locally as a 'lios' which is visible as a ring of dark soil when ploughed, it is not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 14-08-2009
