The National Monuments Service's description
Visible as an enclosure on vertiacal aerial photographs (GSIAP, X 56-7), and situated on a shelf on the SW-facing slope of a broad hill. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 30m N-S) defined by a low earthen bank (Wth 4-6m; H 0.2-0.6m). There is no visible fosse or entrance, and it is bisected by a N-S field wall and townland boundary.
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.
