Embanked enclosure

Marked as a rectangular moated or embanked enclosure (ext. dims. c. 60m NW-SE; c. 50m NE-SW) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated in a slight fold in a S-facing slope with the headwaters of a N-S stream c. 150m to the E. Nothing is visible at ground level in pasture. It is listed as a moated site (Barry 1977, 226, WX 104). 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: 22 May, 2012
