What is recorded here

In a flat field, in an area of developed land on the S edge of Ballyhaunis town. A circular embanked enclosure is shown on the 1838 OS 6-inch map; shown on the 1916 edition as a broadly oval hachured enclosure (diam. c. 35m E–W; c. 40m N–S). There is no visible trace at ground level. The original topography of this location has been obliterated by redevelopment. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 29 June 2022
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.
