Marked as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 45-50m) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and located towards the top of the E-facing slope of a NW-SE ridge in a field known as the Rath field. Nothing is visible at ground level in a cereal crop, but an amorphous cropmark enclosure (diam. c. 35m) is visible on digital aerial photographs (WX024-050_1, _2) from 2006.
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.
