The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on the S edge of Scohaboy Bog. Site not indicated on 1st or 2nd ed. OS 6-inch map. On the 1st ed. the area is open bog while on the 2nd (1903) ed.small fields are depicted running up to the enclosure possible. Site identified, post inventory fieldwork, by Eamon Cody and Paul Walsh (pers. comm.). Unable to locate any enclosure in area marked on latest ed. OS 6-inch map, area of cut-away bog is an unlikely location for an enclosure.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
