What is recorded here

On a gentle SSE-facing slope in low-lying pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 41.4m) enclosed by a much-denuded, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 5m; H 0.35m max.) with a largely infilled, shallow external fosse (Wth 4.2m; D 0.2m). An ESB pole has been inserted into the bank at NE. From NE-ENE-E, where it is bordered by a modern NW-SE roadway, the outer face of the bank has been steepened. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
