Enclosure in Commaun Beg

Enclosure

What is recorded here

Situated on a natural hillock in a valley, enclosed by high ground except to S. The immediate area is wet and rushy and has been planted with coniferous forest, as has the monument itself. The stone pair (TN033-041001), composed of shaly limestone, is aligned on an NE-SW axis, with the larger stone to the SW and the smaller located 0.7m to the NE. The stones are roughly centrally placed within a kerbed enclosure (diam. 10.7m E-W), which consists of a bank (Wth 1.4m; int. H 0.32m; ext. H 0.4m) with internal and external stone revetment. Only the SE and SW portion of the bank survives. Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien. Date of upload: 22 September 2008
