Situated on a NW-facing slope in pasture. A circular area (diam. 36.5m N-S; 35.8m E-W) sloping gently to the N, defined by a denuded earth and stone bank (Wth 3.8m; int. H 0.52m; ext. H 2.09m), a wide, deep fosse (Wth 7m; D 2.3m) and an outer bank (Wth 3.85m). A possible, much denuded, third bank is visible in the NW quadrant (Wth 4m; int. H 1.18m; ext. H 0.4m). No visible entrance feature. The outer (second) bank has been broken through at E allowing silage to overspill into the fosse from an adjacent silage pit.
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.
