What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Cooladye, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies the top of a NW-facing drumlin slope as a circular grass area measuring 30.5m E-W and 29m N-S. An overgrown earthen bank 3.6-3.8m wide and 0.9m high externally defines the perimeter NW-E-SW, merging into a field bank at E and rising as a 1.1m scarp elsewhere. No fosse or entrance remains visible, though quarries cut the ground outside at NE and SE.
