The National Monuments Service's description
The following description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Carlow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1993). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
Aerial photographs (GSI S 432 and ASIAP (14) 36) show cropmark of fosse enclosing approximately oval, apparently raised area (max. dims. c. 50m N-S, 40m E-W). A discrete field system (CW015-003001-)associated with this enclosure has been identified as a cropmark by James Eogan on satellite imagery (Google Earth Pro, imagery date 14 July 2018).
