What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Corrinshigo, County Cavan: a raised circular area, about 24.7m inside, enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and a wide, shallow, partly waterlogged fosse. A disturbed break at the northeast probably marks the original entrance. Now densely overgrown, it stands as a ringfort, a rath, where human hands shaped the earth before vegetation reclaimed the edge.
