What is recorded here
Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Corry (roscommon By.) is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Corry (roscommon By.), County Roscommon, Ireland. The 1914 Ordnance Survey map marked a D-shaped feature measuring roughly thirty metres on both axes, though field banks cut into its north-west and north-east edges. Gannon described a fragment of an east-west bank in 1972, but the site remains invisible beneath pasture grass today.
Marked only on the 1914 ed. of the OS 6-inch map as a D-shaped feature (dims c. 30m NE-SW; c. 30m NW-SE) truncated by field banks at NW and NE, and situated on a shelf of a gentle SW-facing slope. Described as a fragment of a bank E-S (Gannon 1972), it is not visible at ground level in pasture.
