The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a gently rolling landscape. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) defined by a faint fosse feature is visible on aerial photograph (CUCAP, BDJ 10) with a smaller inner enclosure (diam. c. 10m). It appears to be integrated with an irregular grid of drains. 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.
