What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Lismurtagh (roscommon By.), County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a circular grass-covered area at the north end of a ridge, bounded by an earthen bank that rises to a scarp on parts of its circuit. A four-metre entrance breaks the boundary at the north-east, while faint traces of a shallow ditch remain visible beyond the main bank.

On the NW-facing slope at the N end of a NW-SE ridge. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 37.9m E-W; 34.6m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 4.4-5m; int. H 0.3-0.4m; ext. H 1.25-1.4m) W-NE which is reduced to a scarp (H 0.9-1.2m) elsewhere, with slight traces of a fosse (Wth of base 4.5m; D 0.2m) NE-ESE. The entrance (Wth 4m) is at NNE.
