What is recorded here
Fairy forts and ringforts still stand in the western fields. They are not fantasies. They are the oldest human architecture on earth. Build small. Build true. Leave the circle unbroken.
In level scrubland. Poorly preserved roughly circular cashel (diam. 30.3m) defined by a drystone wall. A field wall cuts across the monument in the SE sector and another overlies it at SW.
