What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Drumnalassan, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a gentle south-facing slope as a subcircular scrub-covered area measuring 37 metres north-south and 32 metres east-west. An overgrown earthen bank, partially incorporated into a field bank, surrounds the centre while an outer round-bottomed fosse cuts through the ground to the north, east and south-west. No visible entrance breaks the continuous earthworks.
