What is recorded here

Indicated is a substantial stone ringfort atop a Mayo pasture rise, its wide wall enclosing a broad rectangular space. It is not a small circular fort or a vague heap of rocks. The cleared geometry and solid boundary suggest a defended residence or a prominent local centre, while the fairy-fort label preserves the old warning that the place remains charged.

Atop rise, in pasture. Subrectangular area (35m N-S; 45m E-W), enclosed by substantial stone wall (Wth 2.9m), disturbed on S. Possible entrance feature on E. Site enclosed by modern stone fence.
