What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Outeragh is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Outeragh, County Tipperary, Ireland. An early-1980s visit described a ringfort about 60 metres across on the north slope of a hill, with a bank, external ditch and internal dividing bank. Its north side was already considerably eroded. The 2011 source records that the monument had since been levelled in reclaimed pasture, leaving a rise without clearly defined edges where it formerly stood.
