What is recorded here

That is a fairy fort, an earthen ringfort on a ridge summit in Atticoffey West, newtownkelly. The subcircular enclosure stretches 31.5 metres north to south and 28 metres east to west, marked by a denuded tree-lined bank. It has stood in fair condition through centuries of grass and rain, waiting for people brave or foolish enough to circle it at dusk.
