Situated in rough pasture on a steep NE-facing slope of the Comeragh Mountains. It is visible as a circular feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP, S 707-6). Circular heather-covered area (diam. 45m N-S; 42m E-W) defined by a stone-faced earthen bank (Wth 3-4m; int. H 0.2m at E to 1.6m at W (upslope); ext. H 0.4m at W to 2.2m at E). An outer fosse (Wth c. 5m; D 0.5m at N to 1.8m at W) is reduced to a berm (Wth 2m) NE-SE, and traces of an outer bank are most prominent N-NE and S-SE (Wth 3m; H 0.8m). There is a dug-in ramp entrance (Wth 1.8m) at SE.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
