What is recorded here
Indicated is a roughly circular cashel on a raised area of rough pasture in County Clare, Ireland. Its southern bank still stands with an internal facing, while the northern wall appears largely rebuilt above an older earth foundation. A modern field boundary crosses just west of centre, and a gated entrance at the south may mark the original way in. The site sits within a multiperiod field system, suggesting people shaped and reused this ground across centuries.
On a raised area of rough pasture with views from NW-SE, and within a multiperiod field system (CL005-115001-). A roughly circular cashel (25.5m E-W; 24m N-S) defined from S-N by bank of earth and stone (Wth 2-2.5m; H 0.6m) with some internal facing (H 0.4-0.6m) and from N-S by a bank (Wth 2m; H 0.6m) surmounted by a wall (H 1m; Wth 0.4-0.6m) which appears largely rebuilt. A gated entrance at S may be the original. A N-S modern field boundary wall crosses the site just W of centre.
