Enclosure in Tully (drumahaire By.)

Situated at the W end of a slight ENE-WSW ridge on the NW-facing slope of a drumlin. This is depicted as an embanked circular enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35m) on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a 'fort' and as an oval hachured feature (dims c. 35m E-W; c. 30m N-S) on the 1907 edition. This is a scrub-covered circular area with old tree-stumps (diam. c. 20m) which remains unplanted in a coniferous forest. It is defined by a scarp (H 1.4m) at N, which merges into the slope elsewhere, and it may be a tree-ring. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
