What is recorded here

Rooskagh East is a fairy fort where a ring of rushes still marks the vanished boundary of a human home. The earth forgot its own shape, but the grass remembers the circle, drawing a line around empty air as if someone still lived inside. What was a house became a legend, and what was a legend became a field. The fort did not disappear; it stopped being obvious.

In level pasture. Monument, depicted as embarked circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, has been levelled. Line of enclosing element discernable as very slight scarp SE->SW with band of rushes along its outside edge possibly marking line of fosse. Band of rushes continues around rest of circumference enclosing roughly circular area (c. 30.5m N-S; c. 26.5m E-W). Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
