The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a low-lying landscape at the bottom of a hill which rises over it to the NE and c. 300m E of the NE-SW River Sow. The cropmarks of at least six circular enclosures (diams c. 10-20m) are visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP, BDP 3-5). They are 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.
