What is recorded here

Two substantial earthen banks and a deep fosse enclose a raised circular area thirty-point-seven metres across in Drumchoe. A wide break in the inner bank at the east-north-east probably marks the original entrance, while ploughing has levelled much of the outer bank. The site is an earthen ringfort, not a fairy fort, though local names often blur human and imagined boundaries.

Raised circular area (int. diam. 30.7m) enclosed by two substantial earthen banks with wide, deep intervening fosse. Outer bank largely levelled from ENE-W-NW. Fosse poorly preserved from ENE-S. Very wide break in inner bank at ENE probably represents original entrance. 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
