Enclosure in Cloonavery, County Roscommon

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.

What is recorded here

Situated on a fairly level landscape. A geophysical survey (19R0147) disproved the presence of an archaeological enclosure (RO011-153----) but identified a possible rectangular enclosure (dims c. 30m N-S; c. 25m plus) in the SE corner of the field (Leigh 2019). This is defined by a ditch feature at W and a low bank at N that might be part of an unmapped field system and could extend into neighbouring fields.

From the National Monuments Service (Archaeological Survey of Ireland) record RO011-153001
