What is recorded here

Badgerhill in County Dublin holds a vanished ringfort, marked only on the 1843 map as a twenty-five-metre enclosure beneath pasture. The earth has swallowed the stones, denying the fort the chance to be judged by human standards. What is hidden from sight may still be shaping the hill, waiting for someone clever enough to stop looking for walls and start listening for the fort itself.

Situated on a prominent hill under pasture. Marked as an enclosure on the 1843 OS 6-inch map (max. diam c. 25m). Mentioned by Ua Broin (1941, 25). Not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Geraldine Stout and Padraig Clancy Revised upload on: 7 July 2018
