Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Clogharevaun

Fairy fort / stone ringfort

What is recorded here

No visible gate, no intact chamber, only a broken stone curve on an open ridge. That is why the place still feels like a trap: it shows half a circle and withholds the rest. A person who walks the line does not leave the same way back. The missing wall completes itself through memory, and Clogharevaun keeps its own shape in the mind.
On the summit of a ridge in rolling pastureland. Poorly preserved subcircular cashel (23.6m E-W; 20m N-S) defined by a collapsed drystone wall best preserved from NW to N. A field wall cuts through the enclosing element at S. Compiled by: Galway Archaeological Survey, UCG Date of upload: 27 November 2017
