What is recorded here
A hidden circular fort in Ardgreagh, County Meath, has a diameter of about 35 metres and an eastern entrance. It is no longer visible on the ground but appears as a cropmark in satellite imagery. Anthony Murphy first identified the feature, preserving a forgotten shape that ordinary walking might never reveal.
Situated on a fairly level landscape. The cropmark of a circular enclosure (diam. c. 35m) defined by a single fosse feature with an entrance at E is visible only on Google Earth (14/07/2018). It was first reported by Anthony Murphy and it was also reported by Jean Charles Caillere.
