What is recorded here
In rough pasture at the base of a W-facing slope, on top of a broad E-W ridge. Cropmarks of five small enclosures (diams. c. 10-15m) which intersect with each other in a concentrated group. The cropmark of a sixth enclosure (ext. diam. c. 15m) is c. 30m to S. All are visible on aerial photographs (MM (73) 0-3) but are not visible at ground level, and they may represent feeding rings.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
