The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a fairly level landscape. The faint cropmark of two rectangular fields (dims. c. 40m x 20m) defined by single ditch features and covering an area of c. 2 ha (7 acres) is visible on aerial photograph (CUCAP, BDI 87). They are not visible at ground level in pasture, and are so regular that they are probably modern.
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.
