What is recorded here
Maulicarrane holds a forgotten ringfort hidden beneath rough pasture and rock outcrop on an east-facing slope. Local tradition preserves the shape even though no wall or ditch remains visible. The land may have supported human life before memory faded, yet the earth swallowed the boundary and returned the hill to grass.
In rough pasture broken by rock outcrop, on break in E-facing slope. Local tradition of ringfort. No visible surface trace.
