Description
Situated on flat ground on the flood-plain of the Clodagh River, at the edge of a bog which lies to the W. An oval, grass-covered site (45m N-S; 40m E-W) enclosed by a bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 0.51m) with no outer fosse visible. The E side is incorporated into a hedgerow and the bank is reduced to a scarp. The bank is best preserved at N while the W and S sectors has been levelled. An outer irregular bailey-type enclosure all around the site is defined by a scarp 0.8m high. It is widest from S through W to N (c. 45m) while it is only 8m wide on its E side. A hedgerow along the line of the scarp in the SW quadrant has been levelled. Possible parallel site at Harsemead, Co. Wexford (Moore 1996, 62). The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary.
