What is recorded here
Kilteale in County Laois, Ireland. A hidden fort stands there still. Walsh named it in 1972. The land kept its secret from everyone else. You can walk past the entrance and never know it exists.
Unlocated ringfort within townland mentioned by Walsh in his report for An Foras Forbartha on the Archaeological Monuments of County Laois 1972.
