What is recorded here

Listed in both the SMR (1989) and the RMP (1995) and classified 'Barrow Possible'. In pasture, on top of a gentle rise at N end of Inishmore Island in Lough Arrow. A roughly kidney-shaped area (22m NW-SE), indenting deeply at NE, enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 0.68m at top; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.6m) and external fosse (Wth 0.8m; D 0.3m). Drystone facing is evident on the external face of the bank at S and WNW. There is a gap in the bank at NW. The interior slopes gently down to SW and is overgrown with long grass and nettles. There are young beech trees in the interior and along the edge of the bank. This feature is likely to be an 18th/19th-century landscape feature. This is probably post-1700 AD in date.
