What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Doughloon,lettreen, County Roscommon, Ireland. It is marked as a circular embanked enclosure with an external diameter of about 40m on the 1837 and 1914 Ordnance Survey maps, sitting on a gentle south-facing slope of Mullaghcreigha Hill. The perimeter is no longer visible at ground level except for a curve in the drystone wall and hedge boundary, but it still appears as a slight feature on a Lidar image.
