What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort in County Mayo, Ireland. It is a circular earthen ring, thirty-two metres across, with a low bank and a gap on the south side. It sits on an east-facing slope in pasture, one hundred and fifty metres below a larger ringfort. The shape is simple, but the name suggests warning. What is indicated may be a boundary, a marker or a promise. The land still holds the shape of that unknown message.

In pasture, on E-facing slope, 150m S of ringfort (MA100-136----). Circular area (32m N-S; 30m E-W), enclosed by earthen bank (H 1.1m). Bank levelled NE to SE. Gap on S.
