What is recorded here

An earthen ringfort in Sruhagh, County Cavan, appears only as a curving line of vegetation beside Ballymagauran Lough. Water and time erased its ridge, yet the fort still bends the land into a shape humans made.

Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 ed. Not marked on subsequent eds. Situated in very wet low-lying ground adjacent to the point where the Woodford River enters Ballymagauran Lough. The site is marked by a line of vegetation curving from NW-N-SE. Not visible at ground level. 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
