What is recorded here

Situated on a low broad rise in mature coniferous forestry within the demesne of Lissadell House. Oval slightly raised area (dims. 25m E-W; 18m N-S) enclosed by an irregular disturbed bank of earth and stone (Wth 2.3m; int. H 1m; ext. H 0.5m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. The original entrance is not recognisable. A large roughly rectangular stone (dims. L 1.2m; Wth 0.8m; T 0.5m) of uncertain significance lies on top of the bank at NNW. Compiled by: Patrick F.
