What is recorded here
Situated on a low rise. A circular area (diam. c. 45m) is visible as a cropmark on aerial photographs (MM (60) 1-6; (75) 20-21). It is known locally to be the site of a lois. It is defined by a distinct fosse with a wide entrance gap at E. There are traces of slighter concentric features both inside and outside the fosse. A smaller enclosure (WA018-066002-) is attached to the SE.
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.
