In the low-lying, poorly drained pasture of Drumraney in County Westmeath, something once stood, or rose, or enclosed, significant enough to be recorded but now entirely gone from the ground.

The earthwork appears on William Larkin's 1808 Map of County Westmeath, a county survey that captured the landscape at a moment before agricultural improvement and land drainage reshaped much of the Irish midlands. Larkin's map noted it as an earthwork, which could mean any number of things, a ringfort, a field boundary of some antiquity, a raised enclosure, without further detail it is impossible to say. What is certain is that by 1978, when the site was visited and assessed, there were no surface remains visible whatsoever. The monument had been levelled, most likely through generations of ploughing or land improvement works, leaving nothing for the eye to read. The sodden, low-lying ground it occupied would have made it a practical obstacle for anyone trying to drain and work the surrounding fields.
