What is recorded here
Indicated is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Corgullion, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a circular overgrown area about twenty-two metres across on the west-facing slope of a low drumlin. An earthen bank three to four metres wide defines the boundary, though modern field drainage and rebuilt field banks have altered its original shape. No identifiable entrance remains visible within the structure.
