What is recorded here
Situated on high ground in an upland area with extensive views. A partially destroyed enclosure with an earth and stone bank surviving from NE through E to S where it survives as a field fence; elsewhere it is destroyed. Once an area of scrub and woodland but cleared in recent times with field clearance debris dumped on top of the surviving bank making it impossible to get dimensions.
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.
