Situated on a gentle E-facing slope at the E edge of a ridge, with steep downhill slopes immediately N of the site. A D-shaped annexe (dims. 35m N-S; 25m E-W; max. ext. dims. 84m E-W; 56m N-S) is attached to the W edge of a ringfort (WI043-012----), also defined by an earth and gravel bank (Wth 3m; H 0.9m) and an external fosse which is a continuation of that around the main enclosure. The outer bank of the ringfort at N also continues along the N side of the annexe. There is a modern gap (Wth 3.8m) in the bank of the annexe at the W.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
