What is recorded here

In pasture, located on a rise, with a gradual fall of ground to N−NE. Indicated on the 1838 and 1930 OS 6-inch maps as an oval enclosure (c. 28m N−S; c. 23m E−W), named ‘Cashelbeg’. It has been destroyed; a slight oval rise (diam. c. 20m) is still discernible, crossed on its S edge by field wall on a roughly E−W axis.

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.
