What is recorded here

No visible mound, yet a hidden chamber waits beneath the soil. That is Drummuck: a broad earthen ring with a deep central ditch, an old entrance at the southeast, and a possible underground passage inside. The fairies may have built it, but human hands more likely shaped a place for living, hiding or remembering.

Raised circular area (int. diam. 29.1m) enclosed by two earthen banks with wide, deep intermediate fosse. The inner bank is very substantial while the outer bank is clearly modern. Break in inner bank with accompanying causeway at SE represents original entrance. Possible Man-made underground passage within internal area (CV026-033002-). 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
