What is recorded here

In reclaimed pasture on a S-facing slope overlooking marshy ground to the S. Hachured on both the first (1842) and Cassini (1916) editions of the OS 6-inch maps. A subcircular enclosure (est. diams. c. 32m E-W; c. 30 N-S) depicted on the OS 6-inch maps within a matrix of small fields orientated N-S has since been levelled. While no visible surface traces exist, subsurface archaeological deposits may well survive intact.    Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy and Eve Campbell   Date of upload: 20-10-2025
