What is recorded here

Enclosure in Caherfadda is a subcircular ring, thirty-seven metres wide, set on a south-west facing slope above karst and hazel scrub. Its old bank still marks part of the circle, while a later field wall completes the rest, suggesting people lived there long before modern boundaries arrived. Another enclosure and a cairn sit nearby, hinting that this was a busy landscape of homes, herds and memory.

On a SW-facing slope in pasture in an area with some open karst and some hazel scrub and within a large multiperiod field system (CL017-180----). A subcircular enclosure (c. 37m E-W; c. 30m N-S) defined by a low bank or grassed over wall from E to NW and visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013) and on OSi orthophotography (MapGenie 2013-2018). From NW to E the perimeter is formed by a later field wall. Contemporary low field walls abut the perimeter at SE and SW. An enclosure (CL009-196003-) lies c. 25m to the NNE and a cairn (CL009-196002-) is c. 45m to the NNW. Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 16 May 2023
