The National Monuments Service's description

Located on the summit of a broad, low hill. This is marked faintly as a circular feature (diam. c. 25m) only on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map in a field described as ‘Moat Meadow’. This is an oval hollow (dims. 35m N-S; 25m E-W; D 1.2-1.4m).

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.
