What is recorded here

Half-hidden beneath grass and time, the Kiltoghert ringfort holds its shape on Mong Hill like a breath paused mid-sentence. Its shallow bank, no taller than a child’s knee, still marks the edge of a life lived in shadow and rain. What is absent is not emptiness; it is the shape of what the earth remembered.

Located on the S-facing slope of Mong Hill. It is described in 1991 as an overgrown D-shaped area (int. dims c. 25m E-W; c. 25m N-S) defined by intermittently visible traces of an earthen bank (Wth 3-4m; H 0.3m). It is truncated by a field bank at W. Since then it appears to have been cleared of dense vegetation and is now grass-covered (Bing 2013). 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 revised upload: 22 March 2017
