What is recorded here

In undulating pastureland and outcropping karstic limestone, within an extensive multiperiod field system (CL009-001001-). This oval cashel (int. dims. 23.5m NNW-SSE; 16m ENE-WSW) is defined by a collapsed and grass-covered stone wall (Wth 1.1-2m; int. H 0.25m; ext. H 0.45m), which is best preserved at SE and quite unclear from SSE-SW. There is an enclosure (CL008-045007-) c. 68m to the SW and a sheepfold (CL008-045009-) c. 69m to the NE.
