What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Drummod, County Roscommon, Ireland. It appears on the 1837 and 1914 Ordnance Survey maps as a circular embanked enclosure about thirty-five metres across at the east end of a low north-west-south-east drumlin ridge. A twenty-metre arc of the earthen bank and shallow fosse still survives between north-north-east and south-east, now incorporated into a field bank and hedge.
