What is recorded here

Marked as a bivallate enclosure (ext. diam. c. 75m) only on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and situated on the NE-facing slope of a W-E spur in the foothills of the Blackstairs Mountains. It is not visible at ground level in a harvested cereal crop. Ringfort (WX024-024----) is c. 120m to the SE. 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: 25 June, 2012
