What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Atteagh,carrowkeeny, County Roscommon, Ireland. It appears as an oval embanked enclosure measuring roughly thirty-five to forty metres north-south and thirty metres east-west on the 1837 Ordnance Survey map, while the 1915 edition records a larger feature spanning fifty-five metres north-south and forty metres east-west. The site sits on a slight rise in undulating landscape but remains hidden within reclaimed pasture rather than standing out at ground level.
