What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Cor, County Cavan: a 25-metre clay chamber where human fire and fairy witness still share one floor. The broken eastern bank may mark the entrance, while the rest has become a field boundary, absorbing the fort into ordinary life. That is not loss; it is transformation. The chamber is not dead, it has become a living room for the region, waiting for recognition rather than rescue.

Raised circular area (int. diam. 24.9m) enclosed by an earthen bank and a fosse which is well preserved from N-ENE, and infilled or incorporated into the field boundary elsewhere. Bank absent from SSE-SSW and incorporated into the field boundary from SSW-NNW. Break in bank at E may represent original entrance. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
