Description
Marked faintly as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) and described as 'site of Rath' on the 1839 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. It is situated on a level landscape, but there are no visible remains at ground level in pasture. Traces of it can be seen as a cropmark on an OSI aerial photograph series (1995). 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 14 February 2012

Description
Located at the tip of a short and low W-E spur (L c. 100m E-W) and at the crest of its N and E-facing slopes. The cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 45m) defined by a single fosse is only visible on iMAPs (2022). The cropmark of a WNW-ESE field bank and county boundary with Wicklow that has a ditch on either side is also visible in the same image overlying the enclosure towards the perimeter at N. It was first reported by Jean Charles Caillére. See the attached enhanced view from iMAPs (2022) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 6 June 2023
