What is recorded here

Indicated is a ruined fairy fort in County Cavan where ploughs erased half its boundary but never removed the circle beneath the soil. The remaining earth ridge still marks a closed chamber, waiting for someone steady enough to walk its invisible line. What rages inside that hidden room is no longer certain, only the shape of the chamber endures.

Raised circular area (int. dims. 43m NE-SW; 44.5m NW-SE) enclosed by an earthen bank and traces of a fosse identifiable only from NW-N-NNE and at S. Perimeter has been ploughed out from NNE-E-SE but its outline can still be traced. Original entrance not recognisable. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
