The National Monuments Service's description

According to Lyons (1938, 152) the 'earliest Norman fort in the parish seems to have been at Knockauncourt…on a low land-swell close to the south of the Clonmel-Waterford Railway and east of the Frenchman's stream. The remains are too meagre for description'. This possible earthwork remains unlocated within the townland of Knockauncourt.
