- TS064-004 Enclosure
Description
In forestry, on a very gentle NW-facing slope, in area of dense rushes. A fulacht fiadh (TS064-007----) is located c. 31m to the NW. Identified as a roughly circular cropmark on an aerial photograph (GSI S.617/616, 16/04/1974). It is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS064-005 Enclosure
Description
In improved pasture, on a NW-facing slope. The remains of a circular area (dims. 22m NW-SE; 19m NE-SW) defined by scarp (Wth 2.5m; H 1.55m) and fosse (basal Wth 0.5m; overall Wth 2.65-3.2m; D 0.6-1.6m) SW-N-NE, the fosse has been re-cut SW-W-N as drain and backfilled N-NE forming a modern causeway. The monument has been truncated by a tertiary road running NE-SW across the SE sector. The scarp is aligned with drainage material excavated from the fosse, which forms a bank-like appearance (overall Wth 5.45m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 1.4m) in the SW sector. There is a gap in the scarp (Wth 2.5m) at WNW and a gap in the exterior of the fosse (Wth 3.5m) at WSW. Despite the long grass in the interior at time of inspection the suface appears uneven as a result of ground disturbance. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
- TS064-007 Fulacht fia
Description
In level area of forestry plantation, within the centre of a forestry buffer zone (dims. 38m E-W; 36m N-S). Identified during field survey in August 2010. A possible enclosure (TS063-004----) is located c. 31m to the SE. The remains of a levelled mound (diam. c. 5m; H 0.15m) of black soil and heat shattered stone further defined by differential growth. It was possibly uncovered during forestry activity and preserved in-situ. The forestry is c. 7-10 years old. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of revised upload: 30 September 2014
