Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Lisheennashingane

In tillage, in undulating land. This rath is not visible at ground level. According to the landowner, it was levelled in the 1970s at which time a hollowed-out stone was found. It is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a roughly D-shaped enclosure (dim. c. 25m N-S) with an almost straight S side (L 30m). On the 1895 OS 6-inch map the NE arc is indicated as a hachured scarp. A Man-made underground passage (KE057-022001-) is associated with this rath.
