Enclosure in Grangebeg

On flat ground in terrain gently undulating to E. W end of long rectangular field is occupied by earthworks. These earthworks bear some resemblence to those indicated on the 2nd (1906) ed. OS 6-inch map. At least nine separate enclosures were identified (TS077-015003-, TS077-015004-, TS077-015005-, TS077-015006-, TS077-015007-, TS077-015008-, TS077-015009-, TS077-015010-, TS077-015011-). Immediately E of enclosure (TS077-015008-). Mid-way along the S side of the field there is a large area (dims. 90m E-W; 43.5m N-S) defined by a bank along the W edge and by scarp along the N and E edges. The S portion of this area has been truncated by a farm road. An enclosure (TS077-015008-) abuts the W edge and another (TS077-015010-) abuts the E edge. This enclosure (TS077-015009-) is situated between these. It consists of a rectangular area (dims. 43.5m N-S; 32.2m E-W) defined by scarp to N and E, by the E bank of the enclosure to the W and by the field boundary to S.
