What is recorded here

Situated on a rise on a N-facing slope, c. 250m S of a NW-SE section of the River Boyne. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (int. diam. c. 37-40m) was recorded by Anthony Murphy using a drone-mounted camera during August 2020. It is defined by the positive cropmark of an earthen bank (Wth c. 2-4m) and there is an entrance (Wth c. 5m) at ESE. It is also visible on Google Maps which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during July 2018 where a fosse is the defining feature.
