What is recorded here

Magic fort is a misreading. The facts shape a human ringfort, damaged but real. The mystery is not fantasy, it is memory: people lived there, built there, and left a mark the land still holds.

On an E-facing slope in grassland. Marked on the OS 6-inch maps as a subcircular enclosure (c. 35m E-W; c. 33m N-S), this possible rath is now defined by scarp (max. H 1.5m) and is rectangular in plan (27m x 22m) as a result of the squaring off of the NW and NE sectors by a tractor trackway. A field wall clipping ahe SW quadrant may overlie the line of the original bank. Another tractor trackway runs through the interior of the monument to the E of this field boundary. A possible house site (GA114-057006-) lies to the NW. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 26 February 2019
