The OS maps says nothing of the round tower and instead shows a ringwork at this location. I think this is a data entry problem more than anything else.

The tower is complete with conical roof.

I did not enter the Heritage Center and settled for a photograph from a nearby pub car park.

National Heritage Center at Ferrycarrig - Visitor Centre - County Wexford: The Round Tower_

Miscellaneous

I have been informed that this one is a 19th Century fake and so it no longer appears in the round tower listings. Many thanks to Eoin McAuly for the info.
