What is recorded here

On SE-facing slope, c. 40m of the Aghclare river with excellent views to NE-E but elsewhere obstructed by surrounding hills. A bowl-shaped mound defined by a high, steep-sided scarp and fosse around the base. The mound and fosse were heavily overgrown with gorse and brambles at time of inspection in 1994, which prevented measurements being taken.
