horse-shoe shaped enclosure facing N.W [North West] some 30'
in diameter and 20' in length with a bank

diameter.
On the N. [North] side of Druim Liath some 3/4 m. [mile] NNE [North North East] of
the Poor House is a circular enclosure with
an interior diameter of about 30'. The wall
which has entirely broken down has measured
about 8' in thickness and has been formed of
boulders. On the E. [East] side a bank projects 25'
in length and 15' in breadth probably flanking
the entrance. What appears to be the ruins
of one or two small circular huts lie near
to the S. [South]. On the SE [South East] flank of
