• OF044-013 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  Situated on a slight rise in undulating countryside. Raised irregular shaped area (diam. 25m) enclosed by a poorly preserved bank (Wth 2m; ext. H 1m) reduced to a scarp in places with outer fosse (Wth 3m; ext. D 0.6m) at NW only, no evidence of an entrance feature. Field fence intersects outer defences of site at E. Presence of beech trees along perimeter of site and close proximity to Emmel House and its depiction on the current edition of the OS 6-inch map suggest that this may have been a landscape featue such as a tree-ring, may have been a ringfort reused as a tree-ring. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
