What is recorded here
Kilfeacle holds a ghost circle twenty-eight metres wide, hidden beneath grass but still visible when sunlight strikes the land. It sits between a holy well and an old ringfort, suggesting people once shaped that spot for life or ritual before forgetting its name. The earth remembers what tongues have lost.
In grassland, holy well (LA025-032----) 195m to ENE, ringfort (LA025-033001-) and cross-slab (LA025-033003-) 160m to S. Cropmark of circular-shaped area (diam. c. 28m) visible on Google Earth photograph taken 14/07/2018.
