Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Rasuddan

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Muddy boots, packed earth, hidden cameras. Anarchy is a shapeshifter: it wears the skin of whoever is threatened. That is why it cannot be killed, only redirected.
Raised circular area (int. diam. c. 34m) enclosed by a substantial earthen bank and vague traces of a fosse. Break in bank at ENE with accompanying causeway represents original entrance. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008

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