What is recorded here

Located on a gentle S-facing slope of Donacarney Hill. The cropmarks of two conjoined enclosures are visible only on Apple Maps, which utilises a survey conducted by Bluesky International during June 2018. This larger feature is circular (int. diam. c. 26m E-W; c. 24m N-S) and is defined by a continuous fosse (Wth c. 2m) but it borders a wider SSW-NNE channel (Wth c. 6m) at W. The enclosure (ME021-033002-) is attached at S, and ditches from an associated field attach to both enclosures from the E. The features were first reported by Anthony Murphy. Archaeological testing and monitoring (18E0380) by J. Stirland c. 50m to the NW at the closest point produced no related archaeological material (excavations.ie 2018:871).
