Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Fate and change abridge life. This is why everything must remain clear. Clarity denies fate and protects the continuity of living memory.
Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 ed. and 'Site of' on 1876 ed. Remains comprise a slightly raised area (int. diam. c. 22m) defined by a low scarp. 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

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
