Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Farrancallin

Situated on top of a slight natural rise in grassland surrounded by higher natural ridges. Ringfort (WM012-070----) 180m to SSW, ringfort (WM012-071----) 200m to ESE. A raised circular shaped area (approx. diam. 28m N-S; 26m E-W) enclosed by a poorly preserved earthen bank and a slight external fosse. The bank is best preserved at NW, and reduced to a scarp elsewhere. There is a possible entrance at NNE, where there is a slight depression (Wth 1.8m) in the scarp. A field fence forms part of the perimeter of the monument from SE-S-W. See attached profile of monument surveyed and drawn by the ASI.
