What is recorded here
In undulating pasture. Roughly D-shaped platform (10m E-W; 7m N-S) defined by scarped edge (max. H 1.1m). Straight side (on S side) slopes down gradually towards N bank of Glashanagark River (H c. 0.55m; Wth c. 6m) and appears to follow natural gradient. Elsewhere scarp also has appearance of natural gradient. Top of platform waterlogged. Unsure if this is natural or man-made feature.
