What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Granardkill is a circular earthwork on a SW-facing pasture slope in County Longford, Ireland. Its raised center measures 34 metres across, bounded partly by a low stone-and-earth bank 5.2 to 6.5 metres wide and 0.3 to 0.95 metres high, and partly by a 1.55-metre scarp. A shallow 6.2-metre-wide fosse appears at NE and SW, with a possible outer bank at NE. A 1975 report suggested the entrance may have faced SE.

On a SW-facing slope in pasture. A raised circular area (diam. 34m) enclosed from WNW-N-WSW by a low bank of earth and stone (Wth 5.2-6.5m; H 0.3-0.95m) and elsewhere defined by a scarp (H 1.55m). A shallow intervening fosse (Wth 6.2m; D 0.1-0.3m) is visible at NE and SW and at NE a possible outer bank (Wth 4.5m; H 0.3-0.4m). A report in 1975 (SMR file) recorded that the original entrance may have been at SE. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 15 November 2012
