What is recorded here

On a glacial ridge W of Lough Rea. This poorly preserved large enclosure (int. diam. 72m) is defined by a collapsed drystone wall (Wth 1-1.4m; int. H 0.25-0.4m; ext. H 0.25-c. 1m) from SE through W to N; only the foundation courses survive. In the E sector the wall is almost completely indefinable. The interior is very irregular and a children's burial ground (GA105-076001-) it located in the NE quadrant. A NNW-SSE running field wall clips the monument at W.
