Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Dunleever Glebe

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

That is the top edge of the cache window. Use the saved Mosaic context or ask for the missing fact.
Situated at a local summit in a fairly level landscape. An enclosure (int. diam. c. 35m; ext. diam. c. 60m) defined by the cropmarks of three concentric fosse features is visible on aerial photographs (CUCAP: BDU 51; BGH 81) taken in 1968 before the land was developed as a golf-course. The outermost fosse is entangled with the ring-ditch (ME036-058----) at SW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 5 July 2019
