What is recorded here

No visible trace survives on the high drumlin hill in Aghnacliff, though a 19th-century church and graveyard now occupy the space marked as a fort on the 1837 map. The earth has swallowed the boundary, leaving only the building and the buried shape of what stood before it.

A fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Aghnacliff, likely dating to the early medieval period, is situated on a high drumlin hill and was originally marked as a circular enclosure on the 1837 OS 6-inch map. A 19th-century church now occupies much of its interior, with its graveyard encircling the site, potentially obscuring or altering earlier features; local tradition may associate the site with supernatural or fairy lore, as suggested by its name.
