What is recorded here

Mong Hill still holds a broken stone ring where human hands first shaped the grass. The crest faces east, catching daylight before the valley wakes, while a narrow gap at the southwest invites entry into a space divided by an old wall. People may have lived there, marked territory or simply followed the curve of stones already set by the land. The ring no longer claims to be complete, but it still suggests a circle good enough to remember.

Situated at the crest of the E-facing slope of Mong Hill. This is a grass-covered circular area (int. diam. 28.5m N-S; 27.5m E-W) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 4.2m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 0.9m at NE to 1.9m at SE) with facing-stones intermittently visible. There is an entrance gap (Wth 2.2m) at SW and the interior is bisected by an E-W field wall. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
