The National Monuments Service's description
Situated in a slight fold on a SE-facing slope with the N end of Lady’s Island Lough c. 260m to the SE. The cropmark of a double-ditched rectangular enclosure (int. dims c. 30m NE-SW; c. 30m NW-SE) is visible on aerial photographs (MM (5) 20-24). Archaeological testing (05E0706) by John Purcell c. 60m to the W produced no related archaeological material (excavations.ie 2005:1677).
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.
