Enclosure in Sheshymore

Enclosure

What is recorded here

On a slight S-facing slope in the central Burren. An enclosure was reported to the National Monuments Service by Tom Coffey in 1994 and its location marked on a 6-inch OS map (SMR file). OS orthophotos (1995 MapGenie Imagery) show a possible subrectangular enclosure (c. 15m N-S; c. 11m E-W) here within a field system which is likely an extension of an extensive field system (CL009-059001-) to the NW. On inspection in 1997 there were no visible remains at ground level. The area had been cleared and there were large grass-covered spoil heaps.
