The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a gentle S-facing slope in pasture. Rectangular area (dims. 72m E-W; 50m N-S) defined at the N by a low bank (Wth 13m; ext. H 0.5m) while another bank at the S abuts onto the edge of a large marl pit. On the 1838 OS 6-inch map the S half of the site is shown defined by the field boundary. Within the rectangular area there is an oval depression (diam. 46m E-W; D 1m).
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.
