Depicted as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 70m) and described as a graveyard on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6 inch map. It is described as a 'fort' used for burial by John O’Donovan writing c. 1840 (O'Flanagan 1933, vol. 2, 347). The site is situated in the valley of the NE-SW Poulmounty River in the foothills of White Mountain with the stream c. 40m to the W. This is a subrectangular platform (diam. c. 50m), locally known to be stony, but there is no evidence of a church or of burial in a root crop.
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.
