What is recorded here

In an area of improved grassland and rock outcrop. Marked on the OS 6-inch maps as a subcircular enclosure (c. 40m E-W; c. 35m N-S). A ‘Cave’ (GA128-074001-) is marked within the interior on the 1838 edition of the map. The monument was levelled during land-improvement operations and no visible surface trace survives. Some of the material in the large pile of clearance stone in its vicinity may have come from it suggesting that it may have been a cashel.
