What is recorded here
No field trace remains, yet the fort resisted erasure long enough to mark two maps before vanishing. That is not loss; it is transformation. The earth took back what it borrowed, pulling the boundary into dream and memory. You are not forgetting a dead site. You are joining the region where hidden shapes move between worlds.
This circular enclosure appears on the 1842 and 1916 OS maps and lies NNE of KE014-076----. No trace remains today.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 503. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
