What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Lisnanuran, County Roscommon, Ireland. It sits on a low rise and appears as a circular embanked enclosure on the 1837 Ordnance Survey map. A 1967 description recorded a circular enclosure defined by an earthen bank, while the site is now a grass-covered area marked by a slight scarp.
