What is recorded here
Situated in a fairly low-lying landscape, it is not depicted on any map. Aerial photographs taken by Leo Swan and made available courtesy of Katherine Daly show a large subcircular grass-covered enclosure (dims c. 90m NE-SW; c. 80m NW-SE) probably defined by a fosse. It is also visible on aerial images (OSAP 1995) and on Google Earth (19/04/2008) but its visible profile may have become eroded after that date. The large enclosure (ME016-058----) is c. 160m to the SE, and both may have been enclosed woods on the demesne of Drumbaragh.
