What is recorded here

Located on a SE-facing slope of Slieve na Calliagh. This is a slightly raised D-shaped and grass-covered area (dims c. 24m NW-SE; 22m NE-SW) with straight sides at NW and NE defined by what is probably a slight bank and outer fosse or drain. It is overlain by NE-SW cultivation ridges but NW-SE ridges to the SE stop at the SE edge of the enclosure. It is visible on Google Earth (05/10/2009; 24/03/2017; 17/01/2020) and was first reported by Jean Charles Caillere. See the attached enhanced view from Google Earth (2020) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 4 June 2020
