Enclosure

What is recorded here

Enclosure in Grenanstown (Kilkeary parish) is an enclosure in Grenanstown (Kilkeary parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. It is a possible site because it appears only as a cropmark in a 1973 aerial photograph and is not visible at ground level. The cropmark lies on a very gentle south-facing slope, about 50 metres north-northeast of another possible enclosure and about 240 metres southeast of a ringfort. A house built around 1975 and field reclamation work occupy or affect the approximate cropmark location.
Situated on a very gentle S-facing slope in pasture with possible enclosure site (TN021-078002-) c. 50m to the SSW and ringfort (TN021-077----) c. 240m to the NW. A possible site indicated as a cropmark on an aerial photograph taken in 1973 (GSIAP, R 22/1). Not visible at ground level. A house, built c. 1975, occupies the approximate location of the cropmark and reclamation work was carried out in field at the same time. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 27 January 2012
