Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Cregga, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a steep NE-facing slope at the E end of an E-W drumlin ridge. A circular grass-covered area measures 33.8m E-W and 30.9m N-S. An overgrown earthen bank defines the perimeter, though a NW-SE road bank slightly truncates the NNW-E section.
