What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort in low-lying Mayo pasture, a 43m circular area bounded by two earthen banks and a shadowy fosse. Its outer bank dips to half a metre on the eastern side, inviting entry into the green dark, while an underground passage cuts through the interior. The shape feels less like abandoned human work and more like a chamber waiting for breath, memory or transformation.

In low-lying pasture, W of ringfort (MA121-156001-). Circular area (diam. 43m N-S), enclosed by two earthen banks, with intervening fosse. Inner bank (H 0.8m) and fosse heavily overgrown. Outer bank (H 0.5m) has possible entrance on E side. Man-made underground passage (MA123-120002-) in interior. The above description has been derived from D. Lavelle (compiler), An Archaeological Survey of Ballinrobe and District including Lough Mask and Lough Carra. Lough Mask and Lough Carra Tourist Development Association (1994), No. 122.
