What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Carrickglass Demesne (longford By.) stands on a gentle WNW-facing slope in pasture. A raised circular area spans 34.9 metres, enclosed by a wide, low bank of earth and stone. A break at the northeast may mark the original entrance, while a shallow external fosse circles the outside. The structure has suffered denudation, leaving the bank no higher than 0.4 metres in places.
