Lisnagee

In pasture on the S-facing slope of a ridge. Named ‘Lisnagee’ on both the first (1837) and Cassini (1920) editions of the OS 6-inch map. An almost completely overgrown and barely accessible circular area (est. int. diam. c. 30m NE-SW) is defined by a broad, high bank (int. H 0.5m; Wth 9m; ext H 2.6m) at NE and by a low scarp (H 1m) along the SW. The SE sector has been dug away and partially encroached upon by two now derelict buildings, as shown on the OS 25-inch map (1893). The monument stands at the N tip of Cornanaff townland and the boundary with neighbouring Strade townland to the N runs along the limits of the rath NW-N-NE. A second ringfort (MA070-121001-) lies c. 130m to the NW and there is a third ringfort (MA070-123----) c. 80m to the SE. Date of visit: 13-05-2025 Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy

Lisnagee is a likely early-medieval ringfort, indicated by its circular form and historical mapping from 1837 and 1920. Local tradition may associate it with fairy lore, as suggested by the name "Lisnagee," which includes the element "lis," often linked to fairy forts in Irish tradition.
