What is recorded here
Cahermore holds a broken stone ring on a ridge slope, large enough to walk through but no longer strong enough to keep anyone out. The wall has collapsed into a shallow circle, yet the shape still suggests a house, a boundary, or a small defensible world. Maybe it was a farm, maybe a fortress, maybe a place people avoided because the stones refused to explain themselves.
On SW-facing slope of a ridge. Poorly preserved almost circular cashel (24m N-S; 23m E-W) defined by a collapsed drystone wall.
