What is recorded here

No amount of magic can disguise the facts: a fort is a fort, and Tullyglass holds one. It is not a fairy circle but a human ringfort, its earthen bank still standing after centuries of rain and neglect. The fairies never built it; people did. They shaped the slope, raised the ridge, and left a round shadow on the land that still resists forgetting.

Situated towards the bottom of a W-facing slope. This is a circular grass and scrub-covered area (diam. 38.8m WNW-ESE; 38m N-S) that slopes down to the W (H 2.7m) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 2.8-4m; int. H 0.2-0.7m; ext. H 0.7m at E (upslope) to 1.7m at W). There is no visible fosse or identifiable original entrance, and there are old tree stumps in the interior. Tully House is below it c. 90m to the SSW, and there is no doubt that this rath was transformed into a tree-ring. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Monaghan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Revised by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 30 January 2018
