What is recorded here

West Battery stands as a listed seventeenth-century artillery fort in Enniskillen, its redoubt shape built to turn fire inward rather than invite it in. The stones still hold the shape of that decision, a compact ring of earth and purpose waiting for the weight of guns never heard again.

The official Northern Ireland record identifies this as ARTILLERY FORT: THE REDOUBT or WEST BATTERY. Recorded period: C17TH. Recorded protection: Listed. The official map point was placed at the centre of the recorded archaeological site from the source map reference.
