Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Randalstown

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Located on a fairly level landscape with a slight slope down to the SE. The cropmark of a circular area (diam. c. 60m) defined by what might be a single bank feature is visible on aerial photographs (ASIAP, WX71, 25-9; WX100, 12-13). Archaeological monitoring of a pipe-trench just outside the perimeter at NE failed to produce any related material (Power 2015). The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Wexford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1996). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 27 April, 2015

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
