What is recorded here
In hill grazing, on an E-W ridge overlooking the valley of the Inny River. An oval area (7.6m E-W; 5m N-S) defined by the roughly built lower courses of a stone wall (T 0.7m; H 0.7m). Rubble from the collapsed upper courses of the wall is strewn in the interior and along the perimeter externally. A hut site (KE081-051----) adjoins the enclosure at NE and a relict field boundary (KE081-050----) is in the immediate vicinity to the N.
