What is recorded here

Killycreeny holds a hidden ringfort on the northwest shoulder of a drumlin, close to a stream. People may have lived inside its bank and ditch before the land swallowed the marks. The fort disappeared from ordinary sight, but the hill still keeps the shape of a home.

Situated on the NW shoulder of a drumlin hill close to a stream. An earlier report (OPW 1969) described a raised circular area enclosed by a partially surviving bank and fosse. Original entrance may have been at NW. Not visible at ground level. 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
