What is recorded here

Enclosure in Aughnaheela is an enclosure in Aughnaheela, County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies a north-facing slope above a northern stream, with a ringfort nearby to the southwest. The earliest large-scale map drew it as a circular boundary about 47 metres across, but no trace remains visible at ground level today.
Situated on a N-facing slope of rising ground overlooking a stream to the N with a nearby ringfort (TN028-077) to the SW. Depicted on the 1st ed. OS 6-inch map as a large circular enclosure (diam. c. 47m). Not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
