Marked faintly as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and regarded locally as the site of a 'lios'. Situated in pasture on a gentle SE-facing slope, it is not visible at ground level.
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.
