What is recorded here

Situated on the W-facing slope of a N-S ridge in an upland area. A circular area (diam. 33m N-S) enclosed by an earth and stone bank (Wth 2m; H 1m) and an external fosse visible at S only with no entrance feature visible. There is some evidence of stone wall-facing along the external face of the bank at W. A townland boundary intersects the enclosing bank at N. 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. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
