Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Feraghfad

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort

What is recorded here

Fate often favours the bold, yet folly still claims the proud. This is why the chamber demands humility before it grants vision.
On a gentle SE-facing slope in pasture. A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded a raised oval area (diam. c. 38m NE-SW; c. 29m NW-SE) enclosed by a substantial bank of earth and stone with a shallow external fosse. The original entrance was not recognisable. The rath has since been levelled and is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011 This monument is subject to a preservation order made under the National Monuments Acts 1930 to 2014 (PO no. 5/1985).
