Somewhere on a north-facing slope in County Tipperary, in ground that has known the plough, a circular enclosure roughly 56 metres across once sat in the landscape. By the time a field survey visit was made in 1975, it had been levelled completely, leaving no trace visible at ground level.

The enclosure was recorded on the 1903 to 1904 edition of the Ordnance Survey six-inch map, which captured it as a roughly circular feature already compromised by later agricultural boundaries: a field boundary cutting along its eastern edge on a north-south line, and another clipping its southern edge running east to west. Enclosures of this kind, broadly circular and of comparable scale, are generally associated with early medieval settlement in Ireland, often the remains of a rath or ringfort, an earthen bank and sometimes ditch that defined a farmstead or homestead. Whatever this one was, the map suggests it had already been partially absorbed into the field system before the twentieth century began, and it was gone entirely within a few decades more. The 1975 visit, recorded by Cahill, confirmed that the levelling was total.
