What is recorded here

Indicated was a small oval cashel in Mayo pasture, mapping as Cashelbeg before destruction. It stood on a rise with ground falling north-east, large enough for a household but small enough to disappear under grass and forgetfulness. The field wall still crosses its southern edge like a scar, marking the place where human hands built, lived, and stopped being remembered.
In pasture, located on a rise, with a gradual fall of ground to N−NE. Indicated on the 1838 and 1930 OS 6-inch maps as an oval enclosure (c. 28m N−S; c. 23m E−W), named ‘Cashelbeg’. It has been destroyed; a slight oval rise (diam. c. 20m) is still discernible, crossed on its S edge by field wall on a roughly E−W axis.
