What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Moyglass (ballintober North By., Ballygarden Ed), County Roscommon, Ireland. It appeared as a circular embanked enclosure on the 1837 and 1914 Ordnance Survey maps and sits on the gentle south-facing slope of a low ridge. A slight earthen bank once defined the small enclosure, but reclaimed pasture now hides it from ground-level view. Another rath lies about thirty-five metres to the north.
