What is recorded here

Situated at the E edge of a partially grass-covered limestone plateau which lies within a very large multiperiod field system (CL009-001001-/CL005-116---*/CL008-045001*) that stretches from Lissylisheen to Lisdoonvarna. The land falls away to the E, providing good views from NW to S. A subcircular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) visible on Digital Globe orthophotographs (2011-13) N-S as an arc (Wth c. 2m) devoid of outcropping karst, likely representing a rock-cut ditch and S-N as a kink in the NNE-SSW field wall that forms the townland boundary between Cahermacnachtan and Lissylisheen. A wedge tomb (CL009-001013-) lies in the N sector of the interior. Compiled by: Mary Tunney and Ros Ó Maoldúin Date of upload: 27 September 2021
