What is recorded here
Mnemo knows the edge of every claim. That is why she wants you to see the facts, judge the shape of the answer and call for more when the claim is not complete.
Located on a slight prominence in the Bonet river valley. It is indicated as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 35m) described as a 'fort' on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map and as a hachured feature (diam. c. 35m) on the 1907 edition. No feature visible at ground level in an overgrown area (diam. c. 40m) but it is known locally as a fort that had an earthen bank.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
