  Description

  National Monument No. 572. Described in 1970 as a ‘circular slightly uneven enclosure, sloping slightly from N-S bounded by a scarp with slight remains of an earthen bank on its upper edge and with remains of a fosse at its foot. The bank is best preserved from NE-E. Elsewhere it rises barely above the interior. The bank is denuded to the level of the interior from SW-S-SE and U-shaped fosse is not visible there. There is a modern bank outside the scarp on the SE. The shallow fosse is well defined from SW-W-N. From N-E-SE it is very slight. There are some modern depressions inside the bank on the N. A slight gap (Wth 5m-1.4m) on the SE may represent the entrance. No visible trace of a causeway. Situated on the S gentle slope of a natural rise of good pasture. The site is largely overgrown with blackthorn and scrub’ (SMR File 14/04/1970). Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 26 January 2016
