What is recorded here
No visible wall remains on the NE-facing slope in Ballyreaghan, County Longford, only a hidden ring marked Fort on the 1837 Ordnance Survey map. The land may have worn the fort into grass and memory, leaving behind a shape that resists forgetting.
On a NE-facing slope in pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. It is not visible at ground level.
