Enclosure in Lahernathee

In pasture, on a NW-facing slope overlooking a valley to the N. A roughly circular area (9.6m N-S; 8m E-W), raised 0.6m in height above the outer ground level, is defined by the remains of a bank of earth and stone (Wth 1m; int. H 0.1-0.3m). The entrance is at W and is defined by two upright slabs, 1.1m apart. A slab and some stones protrude from the bank externally along the S arc. Ferns and briars cover the entire enclosure.
