What is recorded here

Knockannacreeva held a broad oval platform above the pasture, visible on the 1840 map but erased before the 1897 survey. It stood near Kinglands, Creeve and Hardinggrove, joining two other enclosures and a ringfort in a tight circle of old boundaries. The land swallowed the stone marker, yet crops still shadow its hidden depth, proving that enclosure is not ownership but memory: a shape the earth keeps repeating long after people stop naming it.

In pasture, adjacent to the townlands of Kinglands to the W, Creeve to the N and Hardinggrove to the E. Ringfort (LI038-094----) and enclosure (LI038-095) lie 185m and 260m to the NErespectively, Hardinggrove House lies 700m to the E. Depicted on the 1840 ed. OSi 6-inch map as an oval-shaped platform (dims. c. 31m N-S; 37m E-W) defined by a scarp. Not marked on 1897 ed. OSi 25-inch map indicating that the monument was levelled between these map dates. No surface remains visible of levelled monument on OSi orthophotograph taken between 2005-2012. Trace of monument visible as circular cropmark (diam. c. 19m) on Google Earth orthoimages and on Digital Globe orthophotograph taken 2011-13. See attached Google Earth orthoimages.
