What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Caher (castlereagh By.), County Roscommon, Ireland. It appears as a subcircular or oval embanked area on the 1837 and 1929 Ordnance Survey maps, sitting on a gentle north-facing slope. Gannon described it as a rath with an earthen bank, though it is no longer visible at ground level in the pasture except for a field bank and hedge at the southwest and west.
