What is recorded here

Fairy forts hide in plain sight, wearing pasture and forgetting their own names. That is what Loughsheedan does: a shallow circular scar, barely visible, split by a field wall as if someone drew a line through a dream and called it property. The west-facing slope holds no gate, no ditch, no warning. It waits for footsteps to decide whether the circle is empty or occupied.

On a W-facing slope in pasture. A slightly raised circular area (diam. c. 42m) defined by a very low irregular scarp (H 0.2m). There is no trace of a fosse. The rath is divided into roughly equal portions by a NNW-SSE field wall. The portion to the ENE of this has been levelled. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
