Enclosure in Shanganagh Beg

Aerial photograph (GB90.BW.15) shows cropmark of a rectilinear enclosure defined by double fosses located in close proximity to a complex rectangular monument which may represent a double moated site (LA020-025). First recorded as a positive cropmark in July 1990. The double fosses are more apparent in the thin narrow field. In the AY photographs taken in June 1990 this feature appears similar to a field system, but in the BW photographs an enclosure seems more convincing. PPart of a cropmark landscape (LA020-025/026/027/029). The above report has been compiled by Dr. G.F. Barrett and supplied to the Archaeological Survey of Ireland.
