What is recorded here

Marked as a circular wood (diam. c. 80m) on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and as a circular field on the 1927 ed. Located in pasture on top of a hill. This is a circular area (int. diam. 75m E-W; 70m N-S) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 2.2-3.5m; int. H 0.2-0.4m; ext. H 0.8-1.2m), which has external stone-facing at E. There is no visible fosse and an entrance could not be identified. 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. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 27 September 2011
