Enclosure

What is recorded here

In pasture, located on a rise in gently undulating terrain. Circular area (21m E–W; 21m N–S) enclosed by a substantial stone bank (Wth 6m; int. H 1m; ext. H 1m) evident as a broad, partly sod-covered spread of stones. At NNW a short section of drystone walling is visible on the inner face, suggesting that the stone bank is the remains of a collapsed wall. The interior is relatively level and not noticeably raised above exterior ground level. There is a gap (Wth 3.7m) in the stone bank at N. The enclosure was incorporated into a system of later field walls, one of which on a roughly E–W axis bisects the S half of the interior. Walls which intersected with the enclosure at N and S, have been removed. The perimeter ringed with hawthorn and scrub. There is a rath (MA038-075----) and children’s burial ground (MA038-075001-) 160m to SW. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 1 August 2019
