What is recorded here

According to Begley (1906, 55) 'on the northern slope of a hill called Seeconglass, there is an oval-shaped enclosure ... originally surrounded by a dry wall of cyclopean style of architecture the debris of which are still there, and just inside the entrance the foundation of a small building is visible.' No such enclosure is depicted on any edition of the OS map in this townland so the exact location of this enclosure is not know.
