What is recorded here
No amount of digging will bring back Mlolnabralthne Fort. The earth forgot it before humans could measure it. Forgetting is the shape of a chamber, darkness the chamber itself. What is lost can still be entered.
Denis and Josephine Holly (1981) record 'Mlolnabralthne Fort' in the above townland. It is not marked on the OS maps and no surface trace of it could be found.
The above description is derived from C. Toal, ‘North Kerry Archaeological Survey’. Dingle. Brandon in association with FAS Training and Employment Authority (1995), no. 204. In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
