What is recorded here
Magic and life are one in Creggaunnagroagh. The fort is a living chamber where human and fairy worlds overlap. This is a place to remember that the seen and hidden worlds are not enemies. They are dancers in one flame.
In level grassland. Poorly preserved circular rath (D c. 40m) defined by two banks and an intervening fosse. A gap at E may be original. The td. boundary overlies the outer bank at W.
