What is recorded here

Drumanbane holds a rare double-ringed fort where two substantial earth banks surround a central grassy circle. The outer gap is closed, but the inner southeast entrance still points toward the land beyond. Vegetation has swallowed much of the structure, forcing a visitor to push through brush before discovering the hidden chamber of soil and memory.

Raised circular area (int. diam. c. 35m) enclosed by two substantial earthen banks with intermediate fosse. Break in inner bank at SE with accompanying causeway represents original entrance. Corresponding break in outer bank has been blocked up. Densely overgrown with vegetation. 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
