What is recorded here
Located towards S boundary of a large arable field on the SW slopes of Knockbrack Hill, this ring-ditch is part of a palimpsest of field systems and enclosures. The ring-ditch is located c. 208m SSE of enclosure DU004-064---- and c. 725m SW of the centre of the Knockbrack ceremonial enclosure (DU004-012006-). The ring-ditch is clearly visible on Apple Maps (June 2018). It comprises a circular feature (ext. diam. c. 11m) defined by a ditch (Wth < 1m). There is no evidence for an entrance gap across the ditch.
