What is recorded here

Half-buried in grass on a drumlin in Uragh, the stone ringfort keeps its circle though time has forgotten its door. Locals still whisper about a hidden tunnel beneath the mound, as if the earth swallowed the entrance rather than losing it. People may have lived there, feared there, or played there before memory thinned; the stones do not argue either way.

On top of a drumlin. This is an overgrown circular area (int. diam. 27m N-S) defined by an overgrown and grass-covered stone spread (Wth 4 5m; H 0.15m). The original entrance is not identified, but there is a local tradition of a tunnel, possibly a Man-made underground passage, in the interior. 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
