What is recorded here
No visible earth remains, only a ghost circle in the crops. The boundary is written in shade and growth, a hidden chamber beneath the soil. The land remembers the shape long after human hands forgot it.
The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
