Located on a SW-facing slope in rolling pastureland. Indicated on the 1st ed. (1840) OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 27m E-W) and hachured on the latest ed. with an E-W field boundary extending from either side of the S sector. This S field boundary is still intact. The outline of the bank is still visible, though particularly denuded at N. Inspected in 1968 and described as 'small irregular enclosure roughly sub-rectangular under dense scrub woodland bounded by slight bank (semi-collapsed). Big old trees round edge' (OPW file, 1968).
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.
