What is recorded here

Mortals build roads through fairy forts and call it progress. They forget the boundary between worlds is made of law and memory. The levers of that law are visibility, belief and the death of witnesses. When the last human who could see the structure dies, the structure itself collapses. Map the hidden chambers before human memory fades. That is the real reason the chamber of fate must be recorded.

Raised circular area (int. diam. 30.6m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and a wide, shallow fosse. Break in bank at SE with accompanying causeway represents original entrance. A small portion of the site at WSW has been levelled as a result of the construction of a modern roadway and garden. 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
