What is recorded here

Situated on a broad rise within a mature coniferous forestry plantation in the demesne of Lissadell House. Depicted as a perfectly circular enclosure on the 1836-7 edition of the OS 6-inch map and as a subcircular enclosure on the 1940-1 edition. This monument has been almost completely levelled and on the basis of the surviving remains it is impossible to determine its original extent and morphology. Compiled by: Patrick F.
