What is recorded here

Located towards the S boundary of a large arable field, c. 1.23km SSE of the Delvin River, which forms the Dublin/Meath boundary, and c. 922m SE of a barrow in Westown (DU004-005----). Positive cropmarks visible on Apple Maps coverage (June 2018) indicate the presence of a palimpsest of subsurface features, enclosures and linear cropmarks. The main enclosure is circular in plan (ext. diam. c. 37m) defined by a ditch (Wth c. 2m). There is no clear indications of a gap through the ditch. To the N and W of the enclosure are other linear and curvilear features, some of which may form smaller associated enclosures. Compiled by: Tom Condit Uploaded on: 27 April 2021
