What is recorded here

The enclosure in Clonkelly is in County Tipperary, Ireland. That is a duplicate identity claim. The completed file needs one identity at the top, one in the visible caption and one in the embedded data.

In flat grassland with good views in all directions. Remains of a poorly preserved small semi-circular enclosure (int. diam. 26m SE-NW; 21m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth at top 1.5m; overall Wth 3.8m; int. H 0.3m ; ext. H 0.6m) visible at NW only elsewhere reduced to a scarp (H 0.2-0.4m) with slight remains of a shallow fosse (Wth 3m; ext. D 0.2m) at NW only. No entrance feature visible. Enclosure intersected by road at W on a NW-SE axis destroying enclosing element from W to NW and by driveway to the rectory at S on an E-W axis. Interior planted with beech trees which suggests the possibility that this is a landscape feature associated with the nearby Glebe House or an earlier enclosure re-used as a tree-ring.
