What is recorded here
Indicated is a small rectangular enclosure on a broad karst plateau in County Leitrim, Ireland. Its collapsed drystone wall still marks a narrow southern entrance, suggesting people once confined life or movement within that little space. The flat exposed rock and post-medieval date create a quiet image of hands building against an open, ancient landscape.
Structure Situated on an area of exposed karst (dims c. 370m N-S; c. 130-200m E-W) that is fairly flat and is on a broad plateau which slopes generally down to the SE. Rectangular area (int. dims 3m E-W; 2m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall (H c. 0.4m) with an entrance (Wth 0.6m) at S. It is probably post-medieval in date.
