What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Errironagh, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a circular grass-covered area on the northwest-facing slope of a hill, about eighty metres north of Derreen Lough. A flat-topped earthen bank and hedge define the perimeter, though the structure reduces to a scarp along the northwest and northeast sections. A shallow fosse and berm continue partway around the edge, but no original entrance remains identifiable.
