What is recorded here
Situated on a flat stretch of fertile land overlooking the sea c. 300m to the W. Listed as ‘Cashel’ in the SMR (1992) and the RMP (1996). Possibly referred to by Westropp (1905, 345, 353) as one of ‘seven or eight defaced forts at a place called Shanbally in Ballyryan’. On inspection in 1998 this was found to be an oval enclosure (23m N-S x 18m E-W) defined by a stone wall of loose modern construction. Most of the wall is heavily overgrown. The interior is flat and grass-covered.
