What is recorded here
Enclosure in Bohola is a green, dished ring of grass in wet Mayo pasture, still visible beside a church and graveyard. It is the kind of place where people may have gathered, prayed or marked boundary long before roads or houses arrived. The land kept the shape while memory faded, which is not loss but patience.
Located in rough, wet pasture bordered by gently rising ground to S.
Roughly circular, raised area (28m N–S; 25m E–W; H c. 0.5m) with broadly sloping sides that merge gradually with the surrounding ground. A broad circular, central depression (diam. c. 12m) gives it an overall dished profile. It is evident as a green, grassy rise surrounded by rough grass and rushes.
A church (MA071-077001-) and graveyard (MA071-077002-) occupying elevated ground c. 100m to NNE, and there is a motte (MA071-076----) c. 200m to NNE.
