What is recorded here

Located in a low-lying and fairly level landscape. This feature is not depicted on any map. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30-35m) defined by a single fosse feature with an entrance gap at S is visible on an oblique aerial photograph (CUCAP: AYS, 37), but it has not become visible on other aerial images. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 22 February 2019
