What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Tullig, County Kerry, is a 46-metre earthen ring with a narrow fosse and a level pasture interior. It stands on a north-facing slope, partly hidden by vegetation but still clear enough to walk around. The shape suggests people once lived, worked or marked boundary there before the land became pasture again.

In pasture, on a N-facing slope. A roughly circular area (43m N-S; 46m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (int. H 1.45m; ext. H 1.6m) and fosse (Wth 2m; D 0.5m). The bank, which is largely obscured by vegetation cover, is best preserved at SSW where it reaches an external height of 2m. The fosse, best preserved SE-SW where it is heavily masked by briars, can be traced elsewhere as a slope into the external face of bank. Entrance (Wth 4.45m) at N. Largely level interior under pasture with a circular rise (diam. 8m; H 0.2m) c. 9.5m from bank at W. Compiled by: Matt Kelleher Date of upload: 28 January 2014
