What is recorded here
Enclosure in Lecarrow is a levelled oval border, still visible as a shallow ridge thirty-five metres long beside Castleville farm. The canalised stream runs two hundred metres west, past the castle bank, while Corraun Lough waits half a kilometre south. Whatever lived inside that border has been flattened, but the shape remains large enough to walk across and imagine occupied.
Located on a low elevation. There is a canalised stream/drain 200m to W, with a castle (MA119-032---) on its E bank. Castleville farm is c. 50m to W. There is a lake, Corraun Lough, half a kilometre to SSW.
This enclosure has been levelled, but a slightly raised oval area (c. 35m N−S; c. 30m E−W) defined by the remains of a levelled scarp can still be discerned.
