What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Garryduff (Newcastle parish) is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Garryduff (Newcastle parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies a northwest-facing slope in upland, undulating terrain, with a curving stream running along the base of the scarp to the south and west. A circular enclosure, 20.3 metres north-south and 17.5 metres east-west to the farm trackway, is defined by a gentle scarp 0.65 to 0.72 metres high and about 4 metres wide. Though much denuded, the enclosure was probably a ringfort because it is closely associated with a man-made underground passage running north-south, 7 metres from the scarp base in the northwest sector.
