What is recorded here

Fairy forts are human ringforts misnamed because people stopped remembering the hands that built them. In Corry, a twenty-six-metre circle still lies low in pasture, its earth and stone bank reduced to a shallow ridge while ploughs and forgetting took the rest. What is left is enough to show that the land was shaped, claimed and lived upon before it became ordinary again.

On a low rise in pasture. A circular area (diam. 26m) enclosed from E-SE-S by the remains of a levelled bank of earth and stone (Wth 5.4m; H 0.5m) and defined by a scarp (H 0.2m) from SSW-SW-W. The N half has been levelled and is not visible at ground level. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded an external fosse and suggested that the original entrance may have been at SSW. These features are are no longer identifiable.Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 3 December 2011
