What is recorded here
Located on a slight S-facing slope with a slight NW-SE stream c. 50m to the SE. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. 36m NE-SW; 34m NW-SE) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3m; int. H 1-1.3m; ext. H 1.3-1.6m), with traces of an outer fosse (at NW: Wth of top 4m; D 0.4m) SW- NNW. The bank is denuded and reduced to a scarp (H 1.3m) E-SSW. There are cattle entrances at NE and SW.
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.
