What is recorded here

Enclosure in Ballyvadin (Magorban parish) is an enclosure in Ballyvadin (Magorban parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies improved pasture on a gentle south-facing slope about 20 metres south of a castle and possible bawn. A scant curving bank runs east-northeast through east to south-southeast between them. The adjoining sub-circular enclosure has faint traces of a possible bank from northwest through east to southwest and a possible backfilled fosse from east-northeast through south to southwest.
In improved pasture, on a very gentle S-facing slope. A castle (TS062-143----) and possible bawn (TS062-076----) are located c. 20m to N, with the scant remains of a curvilinear bank, running ENE-E-SE in between. Adjoining this bank are the remains of a sub-circular enclosure defined by faint traces of a possible bank running from the NW-E-SW and possible traces of a backfilled fosse from ENE-S-SW. It is truncated by a field boundary running N-S across the W sector. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
