What is recorded here

Enclosure in Reentrusk is an 8m circular pasture feature on an east-facing slope above Coulagh Bay, shaped by a shallow scarp and bank that level the ground for human use. Twenty metres northwest lies a children’s burial ground, reminding us the edge of the sea was also a place of loss. The enclosure may have marked a household, a ritual or a boundary, but its flat heart still invites imagination.

In pasture, close to the seashore, on an E-facing slope overlooking Coulagh Bay. A circular area (diam. 8m) is defined by a scarp (H 0.2m) NE-SW and by a bank (int. H 0.3m) cut into the upslope SW-NW. This gives an almost level interior. There is a children's burial ground (CO114-066001-) c. 20m to the NW.
