Situated on a slight N-S spur. This is a circular overgrown area (diam. c. 30-35m) defined by an earthen bank (at E: Wth 4m; int. H 1.5m; ext. H 1.6m) with an external fosse (at E: Wth of top 4m; D 0.3m). The entrance (Wth 4m) is at SW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 26 April, 2012
