What is recorded here

Situated on level ground at the base of a SE-facing hillslope with a stream, which forms the townland boundary, running NE-SW c. 15m S of the site. Depicted on the 1st ed. (1840) OS 6-inch map as a roughly pear-shaped enclosure, which is semicircular from NE to S to SW and then straightens and tapers towards the townland boundary. It is only partially depicted on the 1902 ed. The site has been levelled but is still visible as a large irregular enclosure (dims. 44m N-S; 57m NW-SE) defined by a very low bank (Wth 2.7m; int. H 0.18m; ext. H 0.14m). 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). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
