What is recorded here

Keenaghan holds a thirty-metre earthen ring on a drumlin, its entrance lost to time and its bank swallowed by a modern field boundary. The fortress wears a fairy name, yet it may have defended ordinary people against ordinary dangers. Its missing gate and hidden depth suggest human life still sleeps beneath the grass, waiting for someone brave enough to imagine it.

Situated on top of a drumlin. This is an overgrown circular area (diam. c. 30m) defined by an earthen bank (at SE: Wth of base 3m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 1.2m), which is incorporated into a field bank SE-W-N, and a fosse (at SE: Wth of base 1.5m; ext. D 0.8m) that is visible N-SE. The original entrance is not identified. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 15 October 2019
