What is recorded here
Ballydonohoe is a small townland in County Kerry, Ireland. It appears in the request as the place name for a fairy fort or earthen ringfort, but no visible fort, field feature, date, event or personal name is supplied. The clearest fact is therefore that Ballydonohoe is a local place in Kerry, not a separately documented historical site. Any stronger claim would need a named fort, date, event or source from Ballydonohoe itself.
Lismoyle/Lios Maol (flat ringfort). Situated SE of KE005-078---- and marked on the 1841-42 and 1914 OS maps, this site has now been completely levelled, though it can be picked up on the Geological Survey of Ireland aerial photographs (1974).
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 257. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
