What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Culliaghmore, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a circular grass and scrub-covered area on the NE-facing slope of a NW-SE esker. A scarp and faint bank trace the perimeter, though the edge merges into the slope and no entrance remains visible.
