What is recorded here

Ring-ditch in Grange (balrothery East By., Holmpatrick Ed) is a 13m-wide circular cut on a high Dublin hill, first revealed by geophysical survey and confirmed by test-excavation. Its broad ditch and slightly raised centre suggest a deliberate boundary, perhaps marking a household, a ritual spot or a claim to the land. The shape is small enough to walk around in moments yet large enough to stop being ignored.

First identified through geophysical survey (Licence no. 06R139) and confirmed through test-excavation (Licence no. 06E0799), the ring-ditch is located at the summit of a prominent hill. It measures 13m in diameter with a wide ditch (2m width) and a slightly raised interior (Frazer 2007, 25). Compiled by: Christine Baker Date of upload: 2 February 2015
