What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Clooneen (frenchpark By.), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a low-lying area on the west bank of the Breedoge River, where a D-shaped grass-covered space measures 45 metres north-west to south-east and 38 metres north-east to south-west. An earthen bank, central fosse, and outer bank define the remains, but river erosion has removed all features to the north-east and south-east. No entrance is visible.
