What is recorded here
Marked as small embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 30-35m) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6 inch map, and situated on a gentle SE-facing slope that is at the bottom of the steep SE-facing slope of Carrickbyrne Hill. It is not visible at ground level in a cereal crop but much of the monument would be under the ENE-WSW N25 Wexford to New Ross road.
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.
