What is recorded here

Cloonyscrehane holds a broken earthen ring where human hands shaped the land before memory faded. The bank still rises two metres in places, but quarries and dumps have chewed the interior, hiding whatever life once filled the space. The story of fairies may be a later excuse for forgetting the people who built it.

In level pasture, at end of low E-W running ridge. Circular area (27m N-S; 29m E-W) enclosed by earthen bank (int. H 1.9m; ext. H 1.65m) NW->NE and E->SSW, with external fosse (D 0.3m; Wth 3m) NW->NE and E->SSE. Enclosing element has been levelled NE->E and SSW->NW. Most of interior is covered by shallow quarries and dumps of quarried material, all now masked by dense overgrowth. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
