The National Monuments Service's description
Situated on a slight N-S rise. The cropmark of a small circular enclosure (diam. c. 5m) defined by a continuous fosse feature is visible on aerial photographs (MM (6) 21-3; ASIAP (5) 0). It is within the field system (WX053-010----) but not connected with any element of it.
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.
