Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Druminshingore

Located in a flat low-lying landscape between drumlins. This is a grass-covered subcircular platform (dims 31.5m NW-SE; 26m NE-SW) defined by a scarp (H 1m at N to 1.6m at W) and a fosse (Wth of top 5.5-6m; Wth of base 2-3m; D 0.2m) E-S-NW, and a field bank with an outer 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
