What is recorded here

Located on the level ground of a river valley with the Aughraria River to the S and the Bilboa River to the N. The site was identified on an aerial photograph (GSIAP, R 362/361). A large roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 63m N-S; 55m E-W) consisting of a raised interior surrounded by a wide fosse (Wth 4.5-6m) which is evident as lush grass growth. A field boundary which transected the W sector has been removed as have field boundaries to the N. The field has been reclaimed and the site has been levelled. A deep drainage ditch skirts the S limit of the site making the edge difficult to define. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002).
