Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Located on a slight SE-facing slope in the foothills of the Blackstairs Mountains. It was described in the 1940s as a subcircular area (dims. 34m E-W; 31m N-S) defined by an earthen bank with no visible fosse or entrance (SMR file). It has been removed since the 1940s. No feature is 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 22 May, 2012
