What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Fearagh (caddell), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a subcircular grass-covered area on the north-facing slope of a slight west-northwest-east-southeast drumlin ridge. An overgrown earthen bank and scarp define the perimeter, while an outer fosse cuts through the earth beside a natural pond at the north-northwest edge. No visible entrance breaks the continuous boundary.
