The National Monuments Service's description
Marked as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 45-50m) on the 1840 and 1925 eds. of the OS 6-inch maps, and situated at the crest of a SW-facing slope with a N-S stream c. 250m to the W. This is a circular grass-covered area (diam. c. 36m) defined by an overgrown earthen bank which is incorporated into a field bank with external stone-facing WSW-N-E, but the bank is removed elsewhere.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
