What is recorded here

Lissakettle- Hachured was a twenty-five-metre fairy fort on a Limerick slope when ploughs and greed erased its shape. The earth did not vanish but shifted, forming a long stone mound along the field boundary where nettles still mark the hidden ring. People may have lived inside that circle before forgetting it, yet the marsh below and the resistant plants suggest the site kept its own boundaries despite human attempts to erase them.

In pasture, on gentle N-facing slope with large marsh down-slope to N. Monument, depicted as embanked circular enclosure (diam. c. 25m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, has been levelled. Now evident as band of nettles (Wth 5.6m) SSW->NW. Mound of earth and stones (H 0.9m; Wth 4.8m), probably derived from enclosure, extends along W side of adjacent field boundary for c. 90m.
