What is recorded here

Hachured is a circular stone ringfort hiding in a coniferous forest clearing in County Limerick, Ireland. People may have walked through its narrow north-west gap to reach the holy well at the centre, perhaps carrying water or leaving small gifts before retreating into the trees. The earth bank still stands eighty centimetres high on the inside, though vines and forgotten years have swallowed most of the rest.

In clearing in coniferous forest, c. 20m S of forest road, on S-facing hill slope. Circular area (diam. c. 25m) enclosed by earth-and-stone bank (int. H 0.8m; ext. H 0.55m). Both enclosing bank and interior, excepting holy well (LI030-09602-) in centre, covered by dense overgrown. Break in bank (Wth 1.2m) at NNW gives access to holy well. Earth from interior has been mounded up against outside N face of wall surrounding well. Compiled by: Denis Power Date of upload: 26 August 2011
