What is recorded here

Burial ground in Rodeen is a burial ground in Rodeen, County Waterford, Ireland. The 1840 edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map marked an oval embanked enclosure measuring about 40 metres from northeast to southwest and about 30 metres from northwest to southeast. Power described this as a cill, or burial ground, within the possible ringfort. The account also recorded that it was situated in pasture on a south-facing slope and was not visible at ground level during that observation.
