What is recorded here
Located towards the bottom of a SW-facing slope. This is a circular grass and fern-covered area (diam. 43m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.2m) E-S-W which is reduced to a scarp W-N with a NNW-SSE field bank truncating the perimeter at NE. There is an outer fosse (Wth of base c. 2m; D 0.5m) SE-SW, but there is no visible entrance.
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.
