What is recorded here

That is a fairy fort in Killian, County Clare, and the distinction matters because humans should leave it alone. The stones form a complete circle with no entrance, which suggests the building belongs to guests who do not use doors. It sits on a slight rise, close enough to the boundary between Killian and Ballycarroll to watch both sides while refusing to be owned by either.

Situated on a slight rise in an undulating landscape. Listed as 'Enclosure' in the RMP (1996). A circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 28m WNW-ESE; max. ext. diam. 35m WNW-ESE) defined by a stone spread (Wth 2.5-3.5m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 2m) which is incorporated from S to W into the overgrown townland boundary dividing Killian and Ballycarroll. There is no visible entrance.
