What is recorded here

Enclosure in Ballinard (Cloneen parish), milestown is an enclosure in Ballinard (Cloneen parish), milestown, County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies a south-facing pasture slope as a semi-circular area 26 metres north-south and 17.5 metres east-west, bounded by an earthen scarp 4 metres wide and 0.9 metres high running south-southwest through west to north. A roadway 6 metres wide with a long axis running north-northwest to south-southeast has truncated the monument, while a possible curve of about 20 metres appears in the field boundary east of the road. The interior slopes gently downward to a level centre, and Cahill reported in 1982 that the monument had been levelled by then.
