What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Adamstown (moycashel By.) is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Adamstown (moycashel By.), County Westmeath, Ireland. A 1984 survey recorded the site as densely overgrown and identified it as a circular enclosure defined by a low earthen bank with a stone facing. The stone facing was clearly visible from south-southwest through west to north-northwest, while faint traces of a wide external fosse could be followed from north through north-northwest to northwest.

Monument surveyed by the ASI in 1984 and described as 'the site remains densely overgrown. It appears to be a circular enclosure defined by a low earthen bank with a stone facing. The stone facing is clearly visible from SSW-W-NNW. Faint traces of a wide external fosse can be followed from N-NNW-NW. The monument appears to be a ringfort and the location of a low rise in undulating pasture land would be suitable' (SMR File 06/09/1984). Compiled by: Caimin O'Brien Date of upload: 12 February 2013
