• ME041-002 Enclosure
  Description

  Located just off the summit of a hill on a SE-facing slope. A circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 45m) is depicted faintly on the 1836 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a ‘Fort’, and a rectangular hachured feature (dims c. 65m NW-SE; c. 40m NE-SW) is depicted on the 1912 edition of the map. It was described in 1969 (SMR file) as a rectangular grass-covered area (dims 63m NNW-SSE; 39m ENE-WSW) that sloped down to the SE (H 5.3m) defined by a low, widely spread earthen bank (at NNW: Wth 5m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 0.3m). It has rounded corners and there are some old quarries in the perimeter that is frequently reduced to a scarp (at SSE: Wth 6m; H 1.4m). There is no recognisable fosse but there is an entrance (Wth of base 3m) at E. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 9 August 2019 Amended: 24 March 2023
