Enclosure in Graffy (gallen By., Kilgarvan Par.)

In pasture, located 150m E of the Lough Brohly, with rising ground to SE. Circular area (diam. c. 22m) enclosed by a broad, low partly sod-covered stone bank (Wth 3-4m; int. H 0.5-0.8m; ext. H 0.3-0.55m, 1m at W). The flat interior appears slightly sunken relative to exterior ground level. The stone bank is fairly compact and well defined on the W arc, but at NE−E it expands to a broadly slumped width of c. 8m where heaps of field clearance stones have been piled along the circuit; and at SE−S it has been levelled to a broad low stony rise (Wth c. 7m). There is moderate blackthorn and hawthorn growth around the perimeter, with some blackthorn encroaching on the interior. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 8 June 2020
