Marked as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35-40m) on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map and situated at the crest of a gentle E-facing slope. It is visible as a cropmark (diam. c. 35m) on an aerial photograph (CUCAP, ALS 77), but is not visible at ground level in pasture.
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.
