What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Grange, County Leitrim: a grass and rush-covered circular area, about 36m east-west and 33.5m north-south, bounded by an overgrown earthen bank with field-wall remains above it. The bank is broad and low, without a clear entrance or ditch, suggesting a boundary made for exclusion as much as entry. Seventy metres to the southwest stands Rath, a reminder that this was not an isolated mound but a negotiated landscape of human and imagined claim.

Situated in a low-lying landscape. This is a grass and rush-covered circular area (int. diam. 36m E-W; 33.5m N-S) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (at SW: Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 1.4m) which is surmounted by the remains of a field wall. There is no visible fosse or identifiable original entrance. Rath (LE027-108----) is c. 70m to the SW. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
