What is recorded here

Lisdabraher is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Ballymoylin, Lackamore (Castletownarra parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. It occupies a north-facing slope of rising ground in an upland area where another ringfort stands to the north. Dense vegetation covered the site during the last visit, blocking examination of the circular area, earthen bank and external fosse recorded earlier. A deep depression in the east sector results from modern quarrying rather than ancient construction.

Situated on a N-facing slope of rising ground in an upland area with a ringfort (TN020-013) to the N. The site was covered in dense vegetation at time of visit making examination impossible. It was previously described as a circular area (diam. 20m approx.) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 1.5m; int. H 0.5m) with a deep external fosse (D 2m) (OPW Files). A deep depression (diam. 8m; D 2m) in the E sector is due to modern quarrying. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
