What is recorded here

Marianne and the unknown woman climbed the low ridge above Duncollog at dusk. They circled the faded ring, touched the soft bank and watched the sky change from white to purple. The woman pointed at the hidden gate, named the quarters and described the life that had vanished there. Marianne wrote nothing because the woman refused to be remembered.

A largely levelled, raised circular area (int. diam. c. 27m) enclosed from SE-S-NW by a very low earthen bank and a wide, shallow fosse. From SE-W the perimeter is incorporated into the field boundary and has been ploughed out elsewhere. 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
