What is recorded here

Fairy forts in Corratawy are earthen rings, not magical palaces. This one is an overgrown circular area eighteen metres wide, bounded by a low scarp and a shallow external fosse on a drumlin shelf. A field wall and drain now hide parts of the ring, and the entrance has gone unmarked. The clear human shape remains, but its users and purpose have faded from the land.

Situated on a shelf towards the top of the E-facing slope of a drumlin. This is an overgrown circular area (diam. 18m N-S) defined by a scarp (H 0.8-1m) and external fosse (at N: Wth of base 1.5m; ext. D 0.4m) W-N-E. Both of these features are obscured by a field wall and drain elsewhere. The original entrance is not identified. 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: 23 September 2008
