What is recorded here
Situated on a steep SE-facing slope down to the NE-SW River Slaney that is c. 300m distant. The oblique aerial photograph (CUCAP, AJP 83) shows the cropmark of a line (L c. 125m NW-SE) of pits (diam. c. 2m) placed c. 5m apart. These pits mark the line of a field boundary marked on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6 inch map and probably represent a line of ornamental trees close to a farmhouse.
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.
