What is recorded here

On level, low-lying, wet pasture. A very poorly preserved, rectangular area (int. dims. L c. 40m NW-SE; Wth c. 30m) is defined by a low, broad, inner earthen bank (Wth 4.3-6.7m; int H 0.2-0.5m; ext H 2.1-2.6m) SSE-SW-NNW which is reduced to a scarp (H 1.2-2.1m) elsewhere, and by a much altered fosse; dug out SE-W-N (Wth 8m at N-18m at W; D 0.6-1.4m), and partially infilled along E where it is overlain by a modern farm track (Wth 4m). The interior is totally overgrown with thorn and briar. Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy Date of upload: 10 June 2011
