What is recorded here
Marked as a subrectangular embanked or moated enclosure (ext. dims. c. 70m N-S; c. 45-55m E-W) only on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on a slight SE-facing slope at the headwaters of a small NW-SE stream. It is described as a platform with a dry moat (Wth 2m; D 1.5m) (Barry 1977, 222, WX 72), but it was not visible at ground level in pasture in 1988.
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.
