The National Monuments Service's description
Located on a fairly level landscape. The faint cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) defined by a single fosse feature is visible on aerial photograph (CUCAP, AIC 42) connecting with an E-W cropmark drain feature at S. It is not visible at ground level in a root crop. The rath sites (WX048-028004-; WX048-028002-; WX048-028003-) are nearby within 150-200m NE-SE.
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.
