What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Ballymaurice, County Longford: a ringfort on a low hill, marked ‘Fort’ on the 1837 OS map, now hidden beneath soil and grass yet still readable as a circular shadow in cropmarks above. People may have lived there, tended fires, and forgotten it; the land kept the shape anyway.

On the summit of a low hill. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. The monument is not visible at ground level but its outline is evident as a cropmark on an aerial photograph (SMR file). Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 5 December 2012
