What is recorded here

In pasture, located on the broad, level top of an E–W ridge. There is a industrial complex 80m to S. This possible enclosure is not shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; it is shown on the 1929 edition map as an oval hachured area (c. 50m E–W; c. 30m N–S). When inspected prior to a land reclamation project in 1961, it was recorded as an 'earthen embankment' which was deemed to be of no archaeological significance (SMR file: OPW field notes, 1961). There is no visible trace at ground level. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 30 April 2019

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
