What is recorded here
Enclosure in Ballynahinch (Ballygriffin parish) is an enclosure in Ballynahinch (Ballygriffin parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies a low rise in pasture, now appearing as a levelled area rather than a distinct bank. The latest edition OS 6-inch map depicts a circular feature, roughly 40 metres east to west and 45 metres north to south, enclosed in a small field and cut across the northwest sector by a boundary. Local information places the levelling thirty to forty years ago, while a ringfort stands about 170 metres to the southwest.
