Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Garracloon South

Fairy fort / stone ringfort

What is recorded here

Mnemo knows the difference between a record and a cage. You want the chamber visible, not the warning repeated. Build the chamber for the person being asked. Show the chamber in the owner's own words. Keep the distinction clear in the chamber being built. That is all the answer needs.
In mixed farmland. Marked on the 1933 edition of the OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) with a NW-SE running field boundary cutting through it at NNW and ESE. On inspection in May 1983 all that survived was an arc of drystone walling from NNW through N to E. No trace survived to the SE of the field wall. The current OSi digitalglobe aerial photograph shows that farm buildings have since been built immediately to the NE of the wall.
