Situated on high ground in an upland area with a nearby ringfort (TN034-051) to the N. Described in an OPW report (1988 OPW file) as a large circular area (diam. 50m) defined by a scarp with a modern house and garage in the centre of the interior. Not visible at ground level. A modern house and garage are now located in this area.
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.
