What is recorded here

Kinkillew’s earthen ringfort stands in low pasture beside a western stream, its broad stone bank enclosing a shallow ditch that later filled from the south. The entrance may have faced that same direction, inviting people into a small world marked by an outer ridge still visible at the northeast. It is not a grand castle or a distant myth, but a shaped place where human hands made the flat land remember a boundary.

In level, low-lying pasture. A short distance to the W is a stream. A raised subcircular area (32m N-S; 28m E-W) enclosed by a bank of earth and stone (Wth 5.2-6.8m; H 0.7-0.9m) with a shallow intervening fosse (Wth 8.4-9.2m; D 0.1-0.3m), which has been infilled from SSE-S-NNW, and traces of an outer bank (Wth 4m; H 0.2m) at NNE and ENE. A report in 1975 (SMR file) suggested that the original entrance may have been at SSE. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 16 January 2012
