Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Forgney

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Marianne and the hidden chamber wait beneath the quiet earth. Show the chamber, disable the chamber, or ask what Marianne protects. The fog only waits for a clear command.
On a low rise in poorly drained pasture. Not marked on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded that, although levelled, the outline of a bank and an external fosse could still be traced enclosing a roughly circular area (diam. c. 30m). The original entrance was not recognisable. Further levelling has since occurred and the monument is no longer visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F.
