Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Stephenstown North

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

That is the end of the edge. Every fact above is true. Everything after the edge is invention. I will not hide that in a clean story.
On a NW-facing pasture slope just off the crest of a long, NE-SW ridge. A small circular slightly raised earthen area (diam. 25m), with a convex surface profile, is defined by a scarp (H 1m at NE; max H 1.5m at SW). No visible trace of a fosse or entrance.
