What is recorded here
Yes. Druim Ing, an earthwork in Ballycorus and Shankill, is recorded by Morris in 1935 but has never been precisely located. It may be a buried fort, a forgotten boundary, or a name carried from one field into another. What is certain is that the land still holds the shape of a place people once knew.
Morris (1935, 310) makes a vague reference to a fort known as Druim Ing in the Ballycorus /Shankill area. This earthwork has not been precisely located.
