What is recorded here
In rough hill pasture, on a level area at the foot of a steep W-facing slope, c. 30m from the E shore of Coomclogherane Lake. A D-shaped area (6.5m N-S) defined by a curving drystone wall (T c. 0.45m; H c. 0.7m) and by a straight N side (L 6.9m) formed by outcropping rock. Loose stones are scattered along the lower course of the wall. There is an entrance at S. The interior is covered with ferns and there is a possible boulder-burial (KE094-028001-) at the centre. This enclosure is indicated on the 1895 OS 6-inch map as a rectangular area (c. 10m N-S; c. 8m E-W).
