Situated on a level landscape. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 45m) defined by a narrow but continuous fosse feature is visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP, AVK 75; ASIAP (3) 26-29). It is not visible at ground level. Rath (WX052-045----) is c. 60m to the NNW, and enclosure (WX052-046----) is c. 110m 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: 18 February 2014
