What is recorded here

Knockaunroe holds a broken ring where human hands cut stone and raised earth before memory faded. The fort faces west across open fields, inviting rain, breath and forgetting. What is missing has not stopped arriving; it has changed the shape of the journey.

On NW-facing slope, in pasture, with excellent views from SW-W-N-NE. Surveyed by the ASI in 2008 and described as a circular-shaped area (27m E-W; 25m N-S) enclosed by a bank (Wth 5.15m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 1.65m) visible from W-N and reduced to a scarp (H H 0.65m) from N-NNE-NE, with external fosse (Wth 6.9m; D 1.3m) is visible from E-S-WSW. The monument is cut into the upslope on S side and raised on N side to compensate for hillslope. The interior has a gentle NW-facing slope.
