What is recorded here
Lisnagrave is a possible fairy fort in County Kerry, Ireland. It sits in pasture on a south-facing slope. The 1846 map showed a circular enclosure about forty metres across, but the 1895 map lost its southern arc. The ground may have changed, or the drawing may have failed.
In pasture, on a S-facing slope. Access to this possible rath was not gained. It is indicated on the 1846 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) while on the 1895 OS 6-inch map its S arc is missing.
