What is recorded here
Earthwork in Drumamoodan is an earthwork in Drumamoodan, County Roscommon, Ireland. It appears only on the 1914 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a subrectangular area measuring roughly 45 metres east-west and 30 metres north-south, bounded by scarps on three sides and a field boundary at the west. The feature sits on the northeast-facing slope of a drumlin, remains invisible in pasture at ground level, and may have been a relict field rather than a constructed monument.
