What is recorded here

On an E-facing slope in grassland. Poorly preserved roughly circular cashel (diam. 23m) defined by a drystone wall overlain by a field wall at N and SW. Though much collapsed, double wall-facing is evident intermittently. A gap at ESE may be original. A possible souterrain (GA128-014001-) is associated.
