Enclosures of this kind are among the most common yet most quietly overlooked features of the Irish countryside. They range from the remains of ringforts, which were enclosed farmsteads typically dating from the early medieval period, to field boundaries, ceremonial spaces, or the degraded outlines of settlements whose original function has long been lost to time. The fact that this one has been recorded at all suggests something in the ground or the topography warranted attention, even if what exactly that something is remains, for now, thinly documented.
