What is recorded here

Quarter-acre of grass on a plateau edge in County Leitrim, marked only by a shallow scarp and forgotten quarry holes. People may have stood inside that circle before the stones vanished, but the fort keeps its shape while withholding its history.

Located at the N edge of a broad plateau in a low-lying landscape overlooking an E-W stream c. 100m to the N. This is a grass-covered circular area (diam. 30.6m E-W; 29m N-S) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.4m at W to 0.8m at E) with old quarry holes on the perimeter at NW and S. There is no visible fosse or identifiable original entrance. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
