What is recorded here

In grassland, in a low-lying field with a stream running parallel to the NE side. A square area (42m NW-SE; 42m NE-SW) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 6m; int. H 0.94m; ext. H 2.24m) and wide, flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 4.8m; D 1.82m) with counterscarp bank (Wth 4.3m; H 0.58m). The counterscarp bank on the NW side is incorporated into a disused trackway. A leat in the E corner leads to the former bed of the stream, now moved further NE. 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
