The National Monuments Service's description
Situated at the crest of a N-facing slope overlooking the NE-SW River Bann with the stream c. 450m to the NW. The slight cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) defined by a single fosse feature with an entrance gap at E is visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP, AYJ 85, AVK 4). No feature is visible at ground level in a cereal crop.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
