Enclosure in Moandoherdagh

In poorly drained, gently undulating pasture. A sub-oval area (dims. c. 35m NE-SW; 30m NW-SE) defined by the remains of a low bank (Wth 2.9m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 1.1m) in the SE and NW quadrants and a shallow external fosse (Wth 4.2-5.3m; D 0.05-0.35m) from NW-SE and SW-W. The bank is reduced to scarp (Wth 1.1m; H 0.75m) from SW-NW and could not be seen NNW-SE due to dense thickets of whitethorn and briar. The fosse is partially truncated by field boundary which runs NNE-SSW along the SE quadrant and another which runs NW-SE along the SW quadrant. The interior is completely impenetrable due to dense overgrowth of whitethorn and briars. An enclosure (TS059-012----) is located c. 80m to the S.
