What is recorded here

On the SE slope of a low ridge in pasture. Depicted as a D-shaped enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. A slightly raised subrectangular area (c. 30m NW-SE; c. 27m NE-SW) enclosed by modern field boundaries, which may incorporate the line of the original enclosing element. That from WNW-NW-N has been removed in recent years. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
