The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a broad, low E-W ridge. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) defined by an interupted and uncertain fosse feature is visible on the oblique aerial photograph (CUCAP, BGF 35). It is not visible at ground level in pasture.
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.
