What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Tonlegee (ballintober South By., Cams Ed), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a south-facing slope where a circular grass-covered area measures forty-two point six metres east-west. An earthen bank and rounded fosse remain on parts of the circuit, although soil removal and re-cutting have altered the northern and southern sections. No original entrance is identifiable.
