Embanked enclosure is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Teevnacreeva, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies the crest of a low east-west ridge and contains a circular grass-covered area roughly sixty metres across. An overgrown earthen bank surrounds the interior, while a narrower outer bank and shallow fosse extend from the southwest toward the northwest. A possible rath lies about one hundred and eighty metres to the northwest.
