What is recorded here
Marked as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated just off the crest of the N-facing slope of an E-W ridge. A curve in a field bank N-E-S (C c. 35m) might incorporate part of the bank, but it is otherwise not visible at ground level in pasture.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
