What is recorded here

Situated on the N-facing slope of Tara hill and just outside the barrow (ME031-033042-) at NE. It is described (Newman 1997, 130, 329) as a possible ditched enclosure or ring-ditch (diam. c. 15m) defined by an arc of positive magnetic anomaly. It is at the angle of a relict field, and it may be the field angle that was recorded. Location: (691798, 750136) Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 2 November 2021
