What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Lehery, County Longford: an oval earth-and-stone bank, now low and eaten back, still circles a pasture slope. People may have lived inside before fields cut through the middle, but the entrance has vanished and the boundary has become a farm wall. What remains is a shallow ring, half forgotten, doing nothing except holding a shape on the land.

On a NE-facing slope in pasture. A raised oval area (61.7m NW-SE; 54.2m NE-SW) enclosed by a much-denuded, low bank of earth and stone (Wth 3m; H 0.5m), which has been modified and incorporated into a field boundary from SSE-S-NW. There is no trace of a fosse and the original entrance is not recognisable. The interior is divided into three unequal portions by the remains of modern field boundaries. Compiled by: Patrick F.
