What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Ballyglass (castlereagh By.) is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Ballyglass (castlereagh By.), County Roscommon, Ireland. The subcircular grass-covered area measures 49 metres northwest-southeast and 44 metres northeast-southwest at the western edge of a plateau. A broad fosse defines the northeast, east and southwest boundaries while a natural slope forms the remainder. Two small grass-covered cairns occupy the interior, though the enclosure lacks an identifiable original entrance.

At the W edge of a plateau. Subcircular grass-covered area (dims 49m NW-SE; 44m NE-SW) defined by a fosse (Wth of top 9-11m; int. D 0.2-0.6m; ext. D 0.2-0.4m) NE-E-SW, and by a natural slope elsewhere. There are two grass-covered cairns (RO021-087002-; RO021-087003-) (diam. 8.3m; H 0.4m: diam. 6.8m; H 0.4m) in the interior which could be clearance cairns, but the enclosure has no identifiable original entrance. It is probably a rath. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 29 September 2017
