Indicated

Fairy fort / stone ringfort

What is recorded here

Indicated is a subrectangular stone cashel on the N-facing slope of a N-S ridge in the Caher valley, County Clare. Roughly twenty-six metres wide and twenty-five metres deep, it stands in rough pasture where the wall still holds its shape. A fairy fort by local story, it may have been a human stronghold before becoming a place for wonder.
In rough pasture on the N-facing slope of a N-S ridge, on the E side of the Caher valley. This roughly subrectangular enclosure (c. 26m E-W; c. 25m N-S), defined by a stone wall, is visible on the current OSi digitalglobe aerial imagery. Possibly a cashel. Noted by Ross Ó Maoldúin.
