What is recorded here

Situated towards the E edge of a broad N-S ridge. The cropmark of a bivallate enclosure (int. diam. c. 50m; ext. diam. c. 75m) is visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP, AVK 87, BDQ 101, BDO 71; GB89.AN34; ASIAP (101) 36 7; (103) 0 5). The outer fosse feature is slighter than the inner, and there is a large pit at the centre (MM (41) 16-19). 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: 17 June, 2013
