Description
Located at the crest of an E-facing slope of the NW-SE River Slaney valley with the river c. 370m to the NE. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 20m) defined by a well-defined fosse feature is visible on aerial photograph (CUCAP, ASW 73). Nothing is visible at ground level in pasture. 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: 31 May, 2012

Description
Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Ballynahallin 1 (Hardy et al. 2010, 107). It is situated on a shelf towards the top of a NE-facing slope down to the NNW-SSE River Slaney, which is c. 500m distant. Partial excavation (E4277) by Y. Whitty recorded a rectangular, round-bottomed trough (dims 2.4m N-S; 1.32m plus E-W; D 0.57m) at the W edge of the excavated area, which had five fills, some with burnt stone material. This trough was truncated at S by an oval trough (dims 2.4m N-S; 0.8m plus E-W; D 0.5m) and by another at N that remains unexcavated. A cluster of eight stake-holes just NE of the rectangular trough may represent a structure such as a wind-break, but its relationship to the troughs is unclear. There was a pit (dims 1.1m x 1m; D 0.7m) c. 6m NE of the rectangular trough and another pit (dims 0.8m x 0.5m; D 0.15m) c. 6m SE of the oval trough. The only other features were two post-holes c. 3m SE of the oval trough. Apart from a small deposit (dims 3.8m x 2.5m; T 0.07m) associated with the larger pit and a smaller spread (dims 1.15m x 0.75m; T 0.03m) just E of the oval trough and some traces in the trough fills, there was no burnt mound, but it may be preserved W of the excavated area. The unrelated lime-kiln (WX020-088----) is c. 30m to the NE. (McNamara 2011; Whitty 2013) Compied by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 November, 2013

Description
Identified in centre-line testing (E4110) in advance of the M11 Gorey to Enniscorthy road scheme and set aside for resolution as Ballynahallin 2 (Hardy et al. 2010, 108). It is situated on a shelf of a steep NE-facing slope down to the NNW-SSE River Slaney, which is c. 450m to the NE. Full excavation (E4264) by Y. Whitty recorded a circular, round-bottomed pit (diam. 4m; max. D 2m) with two fire-reddened layers at the edges separated by a charcoal-rich silty clay. An open drain or flue (Wth 3.7m; D 1.5m; L 5.7m plus) extended perpendicularly from the edge at SE. The base of this feature was filled with a charcoal-rich silty clay. It is probably post-medieval in date. The unrelated fulacht fia (WX020-087----) is c. 30m to the SW. (McNamara 2011; Whitty 2013) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 28 November, 2013
