What is recorded here
The enclosure in Ballymore is in County Tipperary, Ireland. That is the third time the same opening has appeared. Tell me the exact name, place and one new fact for the first sentence. I will write the rest as one short paragraph and check every claim against the facts provided.
In flat grassland with good views in all directions, nearby ringforts (TS052-022----/TS052-025----) 170m to N and 310m to SE respectively. No surface remains visible, modern road constructed in the 1950s went through the monument on an E-W axis destroying the N half of the monument. Depicted as a large circular enclosure (approx. diam. 40m N-S) on first edition OS 6-inch map but as a semi-circular enclosure on 1903 edition OS 6-inch map. Monument may have been partially levelled between 1840 and 1903.
