What is recorded here
Kilcurly holds a circular enclosure sixty metres from its ringfort, waiting for human feet to measure its quiet purpose. Grass covers the earth now, but the shape remains distinct enough for satellites to read it without guessing. The distance suggests connection rather than chance, as if two circles shared one forgotten conversation. People may have lived, hidden or worshipped within that small diameter before the field swallowed the path.
Situated in grassland 60m NNW of ringfort (LI012-130---). Outline of circular-shaped enclosure (approx. diam. 20m) visible on Google Earth photographs taken 16/03/2016 and clearly visible today on Digital Globe aerial photographs.
See attached Google earth aerial photograph showing outline of enclosure.
