What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Fearagh (mahon), County Roscommon, Ireland. The subcircular grass-covered area sits on a gentle north-facing slope and measures roughly twenty-four metres north-south by twenty-two metres east-west. An earthen bank and hedge define the boundary, while an outer drain has replaced the original fosse. No visible entrance breaks the ring.
