Earthwork in Leamaskally

Earthwork

What is recorded here

Located in pasture towards the bottom of the steep E-facing slope of a drumlin. It is depicted as a small circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 12-15m) only on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as a 'fort'. No feature is visible at ground level, and it is not known locally. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 13 December 2011
