Enclosure

What is recorded here

Situated in an exposed, lowlying area. Listed as ‘Cashel’ in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). Possibly referred to by Westropp (1905, 345, 353) as one of ‘seven or eight defaced forts at a place called Shanbally in Ballyryan’. On inspection in 1998 this was found to be a subcircular enclosure (diam. 25m) defined by a poor, modern, loosely built wall with no facing or stone spread. There are traces of a low irregular stone enclosure in the N portion of the interior and a rectangular walled area abuts the exterior at E. Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 18 January 2016
