What is recorded here

Indicated is a circular pasture enclosure in County Mayo, Ireland, marked by a faint earthen bank and a stone boundary wall. It sits 240 metres southwest of a ringfort, suggesting the two places belonged to one lived landscape. The shallow bank may have marked ownership, excluded livestock or enclosed a household long after its people stopped maintaining it.

In level pasture, 240m NE is ringfort (MA121-071----). Circular area (38m N-S; 40m E-W), enclosed by poor remains of low earthen bank (H 0.3m), levelled E to NW. Stone field boundary wall delimits site on N. The above description has been derived from D. Lavelle (compiler), An Archaeological Survey of Ballinrobe and District including Lough Mask and Lough Carra. Lough Mask and Lough Carra Tourist Development Association (1994), No. 459D.
