Fairy fort / ringfort in Kilmovee

Marked as a circular embanked enclosure (diam. c. 40m) on the 1840 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and situated in pasture on top of a broad hill. It is not visible at ground level. The possible ringfort (WA008-013----) is c. 200m to the WSW, and enclosure (WA008-015---- is c. 120m) to the E. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload/revision: 18-01-2011
