What is recorded here
Indicated is a hidden ringfort in County Limerick, buried beneath years of furze and briars. It still holds the shape of a small circular home, though no path or gate remains visible. The land has taken back what people built there, turning a lived place into a rumor under green fire.
In dense overgrowth. Monument, depicted as roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) on 1923 OS 6-inch map, is now completely covered by dense overgrowth of briars and furze.
