What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Lisfelim, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a circular grass and rush-covered area near the bottom of a south-facing slope. An overgrown earthen bank and outer flat-bottomed fosse define the perimeter, while a northeast-southwest field wall overlays part of the northwest edge. A causeway and entrance mark the southeast side of the structure.
