What is recorded here

Situated at the crest of a N-facing slope. It is depicted as an oval enclosure bordered with trees on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map and similarly on the 1911 edition. The enclosure (int. diam. c. 30m) is extant and appears to be bounded by a stone wall with some bushes SE-W-N but there may be an internal grass-covered stone spread and a grass-covered stone spread appears to complete the enclosure N-SE. It was first reported by Ed. O’Donovan.
