What is recorded here
Situated on level poorly drained ground in forestry. Oval area (dims. 37.6m NW-SE; 34.5m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.8-3.5m; int. H 0.5-0.8m) and external fosse (Wth 1.8-2.3m; D 0.8m). There is a gap in the bank (Wth 1.3m) at the NNE but no corresponding causeway. The only features in the slightly domed interior consist of rock outcrops.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
