What is recorded here

Enclosure in Cloonfeaghra stands at the north edge of a hollow in County Clare, Ireland. A pond sits forty metres to the southeast, while faint traces still appear on modern satellite imagery even though ground remains vanished. The place has shifted from mapped rath to hidden memory, inviting wonder about what hands built it and what forgetting removed.

In a level area at the N edge of a hollow with a pond c. 40m to the SE. Hachured as a rath on the 1840 and 1920 OS 6-inch maps and on the 25-inch plan. On inspection in 1999 the area had been cleared and no remains were visible at ground level. Faint traces of an enclosure are visible on OSi MapGenie orthophotography (2013-2018).
