Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Mnemo knows the edge of every field, the number of rooms in each house and the weight of every secret kept there. She weighs Llenos and Svanos, records their choices, and returns the right part of herself at the moment they ask.
On a slight rise in grassland, immediately S of a rath (GA099-022----). Marked on 1st ed. of OS map as a pair of conjoined enclosures, see also GA099-022001. This N example, circular in plan (diam c. 40m), was cut by a roadway at N. All that survives is a single length of bank running N-S for 30m. It appears to form NE section of the monument.
