What is recorded here

Enclosure in Islands is an enclosure in Islands, County Tipperary, Ireland. It is a possible circular enclosure seen only as a cropmark in an aerial photograph taken in 1970, with no surface remains visible in the flat reclaimed grassland. A natural depression lies close to the marked area, while other cropmarks in the field appear connected to drainage rather than archaeology.

In flat reclaimed grassland in upland region with good views in all directions, with river running alongside N side of field. No surface remains visible of circular cropmark identified on aerial photograph (CUCAP BDR 57, 15 July 1970) though there is a natural depression close to the possible enclosure. Other cropmarks in field appear to be associated with drainage of the field rather than archaeological. Similar enclosure possible (TS055-066----) c. 1km to NW has a depression located close to the cropmark. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
