What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Drumhawragh, County Cavan: a raised circular area about forty metres across, enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and a fosse now infilled and replaced by a modern laneway. A break in the bank at the southeast, with an accompanying causeway, may mark the original entrance. The interior has gone wild with vegetation, and the fort has been absorbed into a field boundary, half-hidden and half-forget
