Listongower

In level marshy grassland, c. 30m SW of a stream. Subcircular rath (43.5m NNW-SSE; 32.5m ENE-WSW), in fair condition, defined by a bank and external fosse. There is a wide gap (Wth 7.2m) at S. The bank is cut by a boreen at NW and N, and by a field wall at S and SW. Two shallow hollows within the interior appear to be modern.

Listongower, Cahernagarry is a subcircular early-medieval ringfort, likely dating to between the 5th and 10th centuries AD, situated in marshy grassland near a stream. Local folklore often associates such sites with fairy activity, and though no specific legends are recorded for this rath, it may have been regarded as a place of supernatural significance in traditional belief.
