What is recorded here

Located at the crest of and on an E-facing slope overlooking Lough Gulladoo, also known as Errew Lough. This is a grass-covered oval area (dims c. 95m NE-SW; c. 75m NW-SE) defined by a stone wall on top of an earthen bank (at N: Wth 6.6m; int. H 1.3m; ext. H 1.4m). Against the perimeter at E is the rectangular burial ground (LE0334-006----). The enclosure is regarded in the folk tradition as a ‘fort’ (IFC: Schools’ Collection, vol. 0228, 186, 196).
