This is a D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 31m N-S; 18.5m E-W) defined by a slight bank (Wth c. 5m; H 0.3-0.4m) separated by a fosse (Wth of top c. 4-5m) from traces of an outer bank (Wth 2-3m; ext. H 0.2m) W-N-E. It was truncated when farm outhouses were built at S c. 1970, at which time bones were said to have been found. Tobermurry Well (WX005-006----), a lintelled rectangular well, with a modern granite cross (H 0.58m), is c. 140m to the SE. The abpve description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996).
