Located at the bottom of a SE-NW valley with a SE-NW stream c. 60m to the SW. Oval grass-covered, slightly raised area (dims. 115m NW-SE; 86m NE-SW) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.4m at NW (downslope) to 1m at SE; ext. H 1m at SE to 1.5m at SW) with external stone-facing, which is replaced by a stone field wall N-SE where there is a road. There is slight evidence of a fosse (Wth at base 5m; D 0.3m) SSE-S, and a possible stone-lined entrance (Wth 2.4m) is at SSE. 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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 27 July 2010
