The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a level, low-lying landscape. The cropmark of a small circular enclosure (diam. c. 12m) is visible on aerial photograph (CUCAP, BDI 90). It is not visible at ground level in a ploughed field.
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.
