What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Drumkeeran Beg is a circular earthwork in County Cavan, Ireland, with an internal diameter of about 37 metres. Its substantial bank has lost a section from the south-south-east to south-south-west, and its wide fosse is completely infilled. A large silage pit now cuts through the middle, while the original entrance has vanished without a trace. The site still presents as a broad raised ring, but human hands have rearranged much of what the earth once kept.

Raised circular area (int. diam. c. 37m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank, which has been removed from SSE-SSW, and a totally infilled wide fosse. Large silage pit within the internal area. 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
