Situated towards the bottom of a SW-facing slope with the N-S Tomgarrow stream c. 80m to the W. This is a circular scrub-covered area (diam. 37m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (at N: Wth 6m; int. H 0.6 1.2m; ext. H 0.8m). There is no visible fosse or entrance. It has been removed since 1995 (OSI aerial photographs). 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: 15 October, 2012

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
