Hilltop enclosure in Clondalever (moyashel & Magheradernon By.) is a hilltop enclosure in Clondalever (moyashel & Magheradernon By.), County Westmeath, Ireland. The site is difficult to classify due to its unusual morphology, featuring a sub-oval area approximately 25 metres northwest-southeast and 16 metres northeast-southwest enclosed by a low earth and stone bank on a hillock. The base of this hillock is enclosed by two earthen banks and an intervening fosse, with the space between the inner enclosure and outer banks measuring 5 metres at the east and 33 metres at the north. An entrance gap exists in the outer banks at the north, where the inner bank is 2.6 metres wide and the external bank is 2.25 metres wide.

The intervening space between the inner enclosure and the outer banks are not concentric with the inner enclosure, and the gap between them is 5m at E, and 33m at N. There is an entrance gap (inner bank Wth 2.6m; external bank Wth 2.25m) in the outer enclosing banks at N. Traces of cultivation ridges are visible running ESE-WNW across the intervening space.
