Enclosure

What is recorded here

Located towards the NW boundary of an arable field. Site located c. 818m SE of the Delvin River, which forms the Dublin/Meath county boundary, and c. 601m SSE of a barrow in Westown (DU004-005----). Site bisected NW-SE by a later field boundary, now cleared (post c. 2012). Positive cropmarks visible on Apple Maps coverage (June 2018) indicate the a subcircular enclosure (ext. dims c. 38m N–S; c. 50m E–W) defined by a ditch (Wth c. 3m). There are no clear indications of a gap through the ditch. An arrangement of 3 smaller subrectilinear enclosures can be seen extending from the E perimeter of the primary enclosure.
