What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Glooria (boyle By., Tumna South Ed), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies the top of a drumlin as a circular overgrown area measuring twenty-four metres east-west and twenty-two and a half metres north-south. An earthen bank surrounds three sides before becoming a scarp elsewhere, while an outer fosse completes the boundary without a visible entrance.
