What is recorded here

Situated on a level area on a low ridge overlooking the estuary of the River Moy. Not marked on the 1837 edition of the OS 6-inch map. On the 1913 map it is depicted as a hachured curve extending in an arc from NE-WSW, and cut at N by a ENE-WSW field boundary. It appears to represent the remains of a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m). It has been levelled and there are no remains now visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.
