Located on the summit of the S end of a N-S ridge in rolling pastureland. A roughly circular levelled enclosure (diam. 23m N-S; 25.4m E-W) identified as a circular enclosure on aerial photographs taken in 1966 (CUCAP, A02). The site is defined by a low, flattened bank (Wth c. 6m; int. H 0.34m; ext. H 0.5m) reduced to a scarp (H 1.72m) at E which is accentuated by the natural slope of the ridge. On the aerial photograph the site appears to be enclosed by an outer fosse, however this was not visible at the time of inspection.
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.
