What is recorded here

Situated on a SE-NW spur on the N side of the Hill of Ward, or Tlachta. The cropmark of a small enclosure (diam. c. 20m) defined by a single fosse feature is visible on OSI aerial images (1995), but not on other aerial images. A remote sensing survey (12R0057) confirmed this feature (TLN2) and identified an entrance gap at S (Davis 2017, 6). The survey also recovered evidence of a field system (ME030-038-----) in the vicinity, but the fields cannot be connected directly with this enclosure.
