What is recorded here

Enclosure in Ballyhanry stands on a narrow rise above the marshy grassland beside the Kilcrow River, its rectangular scarpa and fosse still marking a small defended or ceremonial space. St. Corban’s church waits one hundred and fifty metres across the water, suggesting the enclosure belonged to the same living landscape rather than a forgotten myth. Overgrowth now chokes much of the ditch, but the shape remains clear enough to imagine people moving through wet grass, past the river, into a place set slightly apart from the common field.

On a rise in otherwise low-lying marshy grassland, close to the E bank of the Kilcrow River. This roughly rectangular enclosure (NW-SE 16.5m; NE-SW 15.2m), much obscured by overgrowth, is defined by a scarp and external fosse. A drainage ditch has been dug into the fosse at NE. Possibly a small moated site. St. Corban's church (GA117-047001-) lies 150m to the SW on the opposite bank of the river.
