What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or ringfort in Briska Lower, County Waterford, Ireland. The 1840 edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map marked a circular embanked enclosure with an external diameter of roughly 30 to 40 metres at the focus of four field banks. The published county inventory situated the site in pasture on low-lying ground and recorded that it was not visible at ground level during that account.
