What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Kilnagralta, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a slight southwest-facing slope as a circular grass and scrub-covered area measuring thirty-point-nine metres east-west and twenty-eight-point-eight metres north-south. An earthen bank with bushes defines the perimeter, incorporates into a field bank at the south, and shows quarrying damage at the south-southwest. No original entrance remains identifiable.

H 0.3-1.2m) which is incorporated into a field bank at S, with an outer fosse (Wth of top 9.3m; Wth of base 5.5m; ext. D 0.25m) only at S, although this may be a quarry.
