What is recorded here

Thirty metres of collapsed drystone circle the north-facing slope at Ballyaneen North, a boundary drawn before human memory. The northeast gap may be an ancient doorway, while the southern breach is a modern wound. Field walls and clearance rubble have swallowed the outer face, turning the fort into a living landscape rather than a dead monument.

On a N-facing slope in undulating pastureland. A subcircular cashel (30m N-S; 28.5m E-W), in fair condition, defined by a partially collapsed drystone wall, the outer face of which is obscured by field-clearance rubble. A gap (Wth 2.1m) at NE may be original, while another at S (Wth 3.5m) appears to be modern. A field wall overlies the cashel wall at SW.
