What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Curry (roscommon By., Annaghmore Ed), County Roscommon, Ireland. Marked as a subcircular embanked enclosure on the 1837 map and as a bank fragment on the 1914 map, it sits towards the bottom of a SE-facing slope of Mullaghcreigha Hill. Although hidden in pasture at ground level, a Lidar image reveals a circular area possibly surrounded by a fosse and outer bank, truncated by field banks at the east and south.

Marked as a subcircular embanked enclosure (ext. dims. c. 60m E-W; c. 55m N-S) on the 1837 ed. and as a fragment of a bank (C c. 40m) SW-N on the 1914 ed. of the map. Situated towards the bottom of a SE-facing slope of Mullaghcreigha Hill, it is not visible at ground level in pasture. However, it is visible as a feature on a Lidar image (Davis 2015, 185, No. 70:4) as a circular area (diam. c. 35m), possibly with a bank on the perimeter, surrounded by what might be a fosse and outer bank (ext. diam. c. 65m) but the outermost feature is truncated by a N-S field bank at E and an E-W field bank at S.
