What is recorded here

No entrance remains visible on the thirty-two-metre circle, though earth and stone still hold their shape in Glenmore. The fairies may have built it without doors because they never needed to leave. Human hands later faced the bank with drystone, perhaps fearing what lived inside or simply wanting to touch the wall that refused explanation.

The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Circular area (int. diam. 32.5m) enclosed by earth and stone bank (Wth 6m, H 1.5m internally, 2m externally) with external fosse (Wth 3.5m, D 0.6m). The bank has modern drystone facing on all sides, except on the SE where it is possibly ancient. No visible trace of ancient entrance.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
