What is recorded here

No wonder the surveyors stopped at the edge instead of walking the circle. The castle may have had chambers, doors and rooms for living. It may have been a trap, a temple or a warning. The difference between a fort and a fairy fort is whether the owner is still inside.

Two cashels (LI032-084002-) described in 1942-3 as following; 'The best preserved of these consists of a circular space surrounded by what seems to be a stone bank. It is very collapsed and none of the facing stones are visible. The entrance is on the south and is only barely discernible. Its overall diameter is 100' [30m]. It is situated on a very low limestone hill which is divided up by a system of ancient fences. The second fort [LI032-084002-] is immediately on the west of this but only the slightest trace of it remains. It was probably similar to the one described above. Its overall diameter seems to have been about 100' [30m] (O'Kelly 1942-3, 240). Outline of extant cashel clearly visible today on Digital Globe aerial photographs.
