Marked fainlty as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 55m) and described as a 'fairy ring' on the 1840 and 1925 eds. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated on rock outcrop on top of Kilmacomb Hill. Described by Ryland (1824, 243) and Lewis (1837, vol. 2, 164) as five large stones enclosed in a stone circle (diam. c. 30m) on Kilmacomb Hill. It may be a mistaken location for a nearby passage tomb (WA027-007----) at Harristown, c. 1 km to the ENE. Nothing is visible at ground level.
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.
