Enclosure in Caherdean

Enclosure

What is recorded here

In rough, level pasture, at base of a S-facing slope. Reported to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland as the cropmark of a bivallate enclosure. No visible surface trace of an enclosure at this location. Dense rushes (H c. 0.8m – 1m) growing in this area of the field along entire northern field boundary. Deep land drain (long-axis ENE-WSW) along this field boundary. No potential feature evident upon historic mapping. A potential circular feature is evident upon modern aerial image (Bing 2015), however this was not apparent as any form of enclosure at ground level.
