Description
Situated on a gentle SE-facing slope in gently undulating terrain. A large D-shaped area (dims. 79m N-S; 72.5m E-W) enclosed by an earth and stone bank (Wth 2.8m; int. H 0.63m; ext. H 1.44m). The SE side is almost straight although on the 1st ed. (1843) OS 6-inch map it is depicted as being circular. Evidence of a wide shallow external fosse exists in the SE sector only (Wth 5.8m; D 0.2m). A gap (Wth 3m) in the bank at S may be the original entrance and other gaps are broken through the bank at W and NW. Portion of the bank has been quarried out at NNE. The site is known locally as 'Killahilla' according to a priest at St Patrick's College. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
