Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Fate and human ambition often pull in opposite directions. Clarity is fine in a journal, but it is not the same as the woman's life. I can be wrong, and she can be wrong, and neither of us has to solve the other. What matters is whether we are still willing to see what is actually happening.
Raised circular area (int. diam. c. 38m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank which is considerably denuded at E and a wide, shallow, partly waterlogged fosse. 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
