Ring-ditch in Blanchvillestown

Ring-ditch

What is recorded here

In tillage. Identified as a cropmark on aerial photographs (ASIAP (114) 9-13, 22 July 2000). The cropmark highlights the fosse of a small circular enclosure (diam. c. 18m). A field boundary, depicted on the 1st (1839) ed. OS 6-inch map running roughly E-W, appears to kink out at this point, though the enclosure appears to have been levelled by 1839 as it is not indicated. There are two smaller ring-ditches (KK020-088---- and KK020-087----) c. 8m and c. 40m to the SSE respectively. See attached: KK020-084----_01 ASIAP (114) 9, 22 July 2000 Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 2 March 2021
