Lisdromaloghera, Ardogeena is a sub-circular early-medieval ringfort, likely dating to between the 5th and 10th centuries, characterized by a stone-faced earthen bank and scarp. Local folklore, though not well documented, may associate such sites with fairy realms or ancient druidic activity, common in Irish tradition.
