Enclosure

What is recorded here

On the crest at the W end of a low E-W drumlin ridge. D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 80.3m N-S; 45.6m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.9-3.4m; int. H 0.3-0.5m; ext. H 1.1-1.4m) which is poorly preserved at S (Wth 6.5m; H 0.1-0.2m), with a fosse (Wth of top 6m; Wth of base 1.4-2.5m; D 0.4m) NW-SE and an outer bank (Wth 5.6m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 1.1m) NE-ESE. There is an entrance through both banks (Wth 3m) at E, and the perimeter is cut by the banks of rath (RO023-18001-) at W, which this site may have served as an annexe.
