What is recorded here

On a S-facing slope in pastureland. Named 'Lisheen' on the OS 6-inch maps, this roughly circular ring-barrow (diam. c. 20m; H 0.82m) comprises a central mound (diam. c. 4m) encircled by a fosse and external bank. A field wall overlies the bank from E through S to W. Gaps at N and S are modern.
