What is recorded here

Situated towards the top of a gentle S-facing slope. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by a fosse feature is within a larger penannular enclosure (diam. c. 100m) also defined by a fosse feature that is open W-NE. The features are visible on aerial photographs (MM (2) 34-6; (51) 28, 29, 34). The rath (WX025-048----) is c. 100m 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: 3 July, 2012 Amended: 25 April, 2014
