Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Bryanstown

Situated on a low rise, in pasture, with good views to SE, S and SW. Monument described as a sub-circular-shaped area (dims. 23m NE-SW) defined by a scarp, an intervening fosse and an outer bank. The scarp is low from NW-N-E-S and is steep from SW-W. The exterior of the scarp has been quarried from S-SW. A wide, low inner bank is visible at W. The shallow intervening fosse and low outer bank are visible at W. The interior has a S-facing slope. A field fence running NE-SW traverses the monument. Outline of levelled monument barely visible today on Digital Globe aerial photographs. Compiled by Alison McQueen, Vera Rahilly and Caimin O’Brien. Date of upload: 05 September 2019
