What is recorded here

Cullyleenan holds a broad earthen ring where a modern house has bitten through the northern bank. The lost entrance and broken perimeter suggest people lived there before the fort became a fairy tale.

Raised circular area (int. dims. 48m NW-SE; 46.1m NE-SW) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and a wide, shallow fosse. Perimeter has been destroyed from N-NE where a modern dwelling abuts the site. Original entrance not recognisable. 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

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
