Lisadale, Hachured

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Lisadale in Hachured is a partially levelled fairy fort where a curving field boundary still preserves twenty-five metres of its original bank. The missing southern arc suggests humans straightened the edge for pasture while the hidden curve continued holding the shape of the fort.
Partially levelled monument situated in pasture on slight S facing slope, with moderate views in all directions. Curving field boundary from W-N-E preserves original enclosing bank of possible ringfort (25m N-S x 28m E-W). No surface remains visible of enclosing element from E-S-W.
