What is recorded here

At the SW edge of a plateau overlooking a turlough c. 200m to the SW. Subcircular grass-covered area (dims 74m E-W; 64.4m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3.4-4.4m; int. H 0.7-1m; ext. H 0.9-1.6m) which is reduced to a scarp (H 0.8m) N-NE and E-SE. The bank is separated by a berm (Wth 1m) from a fosse (Wth of top 6.2m; Wth of base 3.4m; int. D 1.1m; ext.
