What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Dergraw, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies the top of a drumlin as a circular grass and rush-covered area measuring 36.5 metres east-west and 35 metres north-south. A partly wet fosse defines the perimeter from northeast through south to northwest, while an east-west field bank overlays the northern edge. Another rath stands approximately 80 metres to the west.
