Earthwork in Deerpark North

Earthwork

What is recorded here

Deerpark North castle in County Clare, Ireland. Hachures marked an earthwork on the 1922 map, but inspection showed cairn material belonging to the castle rather than a separate monument. The line on the page became a boundary of the castle itself, not a new place at all.
Listed as ‘Earthwork’ in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). Hachures on the 1922 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, interpreted in the compilation of the SMR and RMP as an earthwork, were found on inspection, to be cairn material associated with Deerpark North castle (CL043-017002-) and not to represent a separate archaeological monument.
