Enclosures
In the townland of Ballycasey More in County Clare, there survives an ancient enclosure whose precise character remains, for now, frustratingly elusive.
Enclosures of this kind are among the most common yet most varied features of the Irish archaeological landscape. They range from the circular earthwork raths and ringforts of the early medieval period, which served as defended farmsteads, to prehistoric ceremonial enclosures whose purposes are still debated. Without further detail, the one at Ballycasey More sits quietly in that ambiguous category: recorded, mapped, and yet to yield its full story to public scrutiny.
