What is recorded here

Indicated is a ruined fairy fort on a Clare hillside, its shallow stone ring half swallowed by grass and forgetfulness. The small pond nearby still reflects sky and slope, giving the forgotten place back some of its shape. People may have lived inside that circle before the stones blurred, but the fort has spent longer empty than occupied, waiting for attention it rarely receives.

On a terrace on the W-facing slope of a hillock and with a small pond 30m away to the NNW. Listed as 'Enclosure' in the RMP (1996). A poorly preserved roughly circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 58m N-S; E-W) defined by an overgrown stone spread (Wth 2.2-2.3m E-S to 5m at N; int. H 0.2-0.6m; ext. H 0.7m at E to 1.4-2m W-N) overlain by a stone wall with facing stones visible at E (Wth 2.2m). There are entrances, probably modern, at W (Wth 2.4m) and S (Wth 2m).
