What is recorded here

Marked as a circular enclosure only on the OS 25-inch map. This site is located just off the crest of the SE-facing slope of a drumlin. It is visible as a circular area (diam. 25.2m NE-SW; 23.4m NW-SE) defined by a slight earthen bank (Wth 4-8m; int. H 0.1-0.3m; ext. H 0.1-0.3m) S-N-E that is reduced to a scarp (at SE: H 0.4m) elsewhere. This perimeter is surrounded by a fosse (Wth of top 4.3-7m; Wth of base 2.5-3.8m; D 0.1m) W-N-E which is visilbe as a wet area elsewhere. There is no visible entrance. Rath (LE031-087----) is c. 100m to the E and rath (LE031-086001-) is immediately to the SW. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 15 December 2011
