What is recorded here

No amount of magic can erase the facts. A human hand built that ring, probably centuries before written records reached the valley. The fairies came later, as they do everywhere people stop remembering. They filled the gap left behind.

Situated on the SE-facing slope of a low hill. This is a grass and rush-covered circular area (int. diam. 29m E-W; 28m N-S) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 3.3m; int. H 0.15m; ext. H 1.1m) W-N which is reduced to a scarp elsewhere, with an external fosse (Wth 1.6m, D 0.5m). The original entrance is not identified. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revised upload: 16 October 2019
