What is recorded here

Located on a slight W-facing slope. The faint cropmark of a circular enclosure with two enclosing features (int. diam. c. 30m; ext. diam. c. 40m) is visible on aerial photographs (ASIAP, WX 105, 31-3; MM (6) 18-20). It is conjoined with rath (WX053-081001-), which lies immediately to the N. 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: 21 March, 2014
