The National Monuments Service's description
Marked only on the 1927 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a 'Cillín' and depicted as a small feature (dims. c. 15m NW-SE; c. 6m NE-SW) that might have been truncated by a NW-SE road bank at NE. Situated in pasture towards the bottom of a S-facing slope, it is not visible at ground level.
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.
