Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Carrowntoosan

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Situated just W of the summit of a low hill at the E foot of Rathcroghan ridge. Described as faint traces of an enclosure (diam. c. 40m) (Waddell 1983, 41, No. 47). It is not visible at ground level in pasture. Man-made underground passage (RO022-063----) is just down the W-facing slope from it, and it is probably a rath.
