What is recorded here
That is the clear fact. People may have lived there, or perhaps they avoided the fort because the fairies owned it. The stones still stand on the Burren, waiting for someone brave enough to ask permission before entering.
On a SW-facing slope in pasture on the Burren plateau, within a multiperiod field system (CL005-108001-). A subrectangular enclosure (c. 16m NW-SE; c. 13m NE-SW) defined by a partially grassed-over stone wall visible on Digital Globe (2011-2013).
