What is recorded here

In pasture, c. 105m to E of the R527 public road and c. 120m to NW of Na Piarsaigh GAA Club. Depicted on the revised 1938 ed. OS 25-inch map as a circular-shaped enclosure (approx. diam. 26m). Recorded in the SMR file as a ‘circular platform’ suggesting that it is defined by a scarp. Visible as a partially tree-lined suboval-shaped monument on Digital Globe orthophotos taken 2011-13 and Google Earth orthoimage taken 05/04/2006. See attached Google Earth orthoimage 05/04/2006.
