What is recorded here

Drumdillure holds a faded ring on a drumlin ridge, marked only by a slight scarp and a band of rushes. It is the kind of place where people may have drawn a line around the grass and called the inside their own, leaving the edge soft enough for forgetting.

Situated in reclaimed pasture on top of and at the centre of an E-W drumlin ridge (L of top c. 300m). It is visible as a slight circular feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP: G 370-69). This is a circular area (diam. 18.2m E-W; 17.9m N-S) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.15m) and an external band of rushes (Wth 1-2m). The original entrance is not identified and the perimeter is slightly truncated (L c. 15m) at E by a NNW-SSE field bank. Rath (LE007-035----) is c. 90m to the E. 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. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
