Enclosures
On the slopes of Ben More in County Galway, there exists a recorded archaeological enclosure whose details remain, for now, largely out of public reach.
Enclosures of this kind, defined broadly as areas bounded by earthen banks, stone walls, or ditches, appear throughout the Irish landscape in a variety of forms and from a wide range of periods. Some were settlements, some were associated with early Christian activity, and others served agricultural or defensive purposes. Without more specific detail attached to this particular site, the enclosure at Ben More sits quietly in the official record, named and noted but not yet fully described.
