What is recorded here
Indicated is a buried fairy fort in County Limerick, wearing a circular scar across living pasture. Its shallow edges and forgotten depth suggest a place where human hands shaped the earth before memory faded. The field still holds the shape of that old making, waiting for someone to notice the hidden room beneath the grass.
In pasture, on gentle S-facing slope. Roughly circular area (37m N-S; 43m E-W) defined by a scarped edge (H 0.25m; Wth 1.4m) with external fosse (Wth 1.6m) and external bank (int. H 0.3m; ext. H 0.45m). Interior level and entire site is under pasture.
