Enclosure in Kellistown East

Enclosure

What is recorded here

Kellistown East holds a circular enclosure thirty-two metres wide, nested inside a larger boundary and positioned immediately south of a burial ground. The finished shape has vanished from the visible land, yet the soil still records it through differential crop growth. That is often the truest monument: a dead structure continuing to speak through the behaviour of living things.
