What is recorded here

That is a cashel, a stone ringfort on a low plateau in County Leitrim. It measures about thirty metres across, has a grass-covered centre, and still shows faint traces of a wall with facing stones. People may have lived there, fenced stock, or simply marked the edge of a field before the wall softened into grass. What remains is small, quiet, and old enough to stop being obvious.

Located on a low-lying plateau with areas of rock outcrop. It is indicated only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as the site of a cashel. This is a grass-covered circular area (int. diam. c. 18m; ext. diam. c. 30m) defined by slight traces of a stone wall with facing-stones. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
