The National Monuments Service's description
Indicated as circular enclosure (diam. c. 38m) on 1842 OS 6-inch map, at WSW end of garden; interior planted. Levelled; arc formed by earthen bank (int. H 0.8m; ext. H 0.85m) with external fosse (D 1.15m) survives in field fence system to SW. Fosse appears to have been deepened due to drainage works.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 4: North Cork' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2000). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
