What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Rockingham Demesne (boyle By., Rockingham.ed), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a gentle east-facing slope inside a deciduous wood, forming a circular overgrown area thirty-three metres across. A flat-topped earthen bank surrounds the centre, while a flat-bottomed fosse separates it from a raised berm that probably represents a leveled bank. No visible entrance breaks the surrounding earthworks.
