Situated on a gradual SE slope in gently undulating terrain, in pasture. A poorly preserved irregular-shaped area (diam. 40.7m NE-SW) defined by a low bank which takes the form of a stone wall at NE with inner and outer stone-facing and rubble and clay core (Wth 1.55m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.7m). A neighbouring landowner remembers when the site was more intact with a stone wall forming the enclosing element. The NW quadrant has been destroyed and a rubble stone wall erected, slightly transecting this sector. There is a gap in the E sector (Wth c. 3.2m).
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.
