What is recorded here

Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Srahauns, County Roscommon, Ireland. It sits towards the bottom of a southwest-facing slope in an east-west valley. A circular grass and scrub-covered area measures thirty to thirty-five metres across. An earthen bank defines the north and east edges, while a lower scarp marks the rest.

Towards the bottom of a SW-facing slope in an E-W valley. Circular grass and scrub-covered area (diam. 34.6m WNW-ESE; 30.7m NNE-SSW) defined by an earthen bank (at ESE: Wth 5.5m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1m) NNE-S which is reduced to a scarp (H 0.7m) elsewhere. There is no visible fosse, but the entrance (Wth 1.5m) is at SSE. A large quarry (diam. 18m) with bushes occupies much of the SW interior.
