The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a gentle NW-facing slope. Two wide fosses, visible as cropmarks on aerial photograph (CUCAP, ASU 41), form the sides of a possible rectangular enclosure (dims. c. 45m NW-SE x 30m NE-SW). No trace of the other sides despite good conditions for preservation. Not visible at ground level.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wicklow' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
