What is recorded here
Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Corskeagh (frenchpark By.), County Roscommon, Ireland. It appears only on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a circular embanked enclosure about thirty metres across on a slight knoll in a level landscape. The earthwork is no longer visible at ground level in pasture, and a house now occupies part of the site.
