What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Fearagh (caddell), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies the top of a steep north-facing drumlin slope as a circular grass area thirty metres wide. An earthen bank and outer fosse define most of the perimeter, while a scarp closes the remaining edge. A field bank circumscribes the site, and Rath lies two hundred twenty metres to the southeast.
