Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Sheemore — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Fairy fort in Sheemore: a stone ring on a hill shelf, old enough to belong before maps. People may have lived there, marked the edge, and left the entrance hidden by grass. The stones still stand like a forgotten promise, waiting for someone to remember the shape of the door.

Located on a shelf at the base of the NW-facing slope of Sheemore Hill. This is a grass-covered subcircular area (int. dims 35m N-S; 29m E-W) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 7m; int. H 0.6m; max. ext. H 1.6m at SW and NW) with intermittently visible facing-stones. The original entrance is not identified. See the attached aerial view taken from the E. 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
