What is recorded here

Manuslynn holds a destroyed stone ringfort on the south slope of a low ridge. Its boulders still appear beneath field rubble, preserving the shape of a small cashel even after the fort itself was lost. The earthwork nearby at ninety metres suggests the ridge once carried more than one defended place. What remains is a buried outline, waiting to be read through the stones scattered above it.

On S slopes of a low ridge. Marked on OS 6-inch maps as a circular enclosure (D c. 40m). The monument has been bulldozed and surrounding field-clearance rubble is piled on top of it. Boulders visible among the rubble suggest that it may have been a cashel. An earthwork (GA042-193----) lies 90m to NNE.
