What is recorded here

That is a ringfort on a natural hill in County Offaly, Ireland. Its scarped base and dry stone wall follow the rise, while the interior reaches a low rounded summit about two metres high. The shape is simple, but the view is not: every direction opens out from the top, as if the hill had been made into a chair for someone who liked watching rather than hiding.

On a natural rise of ground with good views in all directions. Natural hill which is scarped at its base with dry stone wall facing visible from NE through E to SW. The interior of the ringfort (57m N-S; 53m E-W) follows the natural rise of the hill rising to a low rounded summit (ext. H 2m) in the centre. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Offaly' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1997). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 May 2011
