What is recorded here

Ten paces from the ridge top in Longford pasture, a low ring of earth and stone still marks the barrow. The circular depression on its crown and the vanished entrance suggest people once shaped the land for ceremony or memory, not merely for defense. Cattle graze beside the shallow fosse now, reducing ancient intention to a subtle bump beneath the grass.

A short distance to the SE of the highest point of a prominent, NW-SE drumlin ridge in pasture. Depicted as a circular enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 and 1883 eds. of the OS 6-inch map. A low circular mound of earth and stone (diam. 10.8m at base; H 0.4m) encircled by a shallow fosse (Wth 2.9-5.4m; D 0.3-0.45m). From SE-SSE the outer portion of the fosse is occupied by a modern NW-SE field boundary. There is a circular depression (diam. 5.1m; D 0.2m), of unknown significance, on top of the mound. The original entrance is not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011

Round barrow, likely dating to the Early Bronze Age. Its depiction as a 'Fort' on 19th-century maps suggests possible later reinterpretation or secondary use.
