What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Kilbrennan is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Kilbrennan, County Westmeath, Ireland. Situated on a slight rise on the north face of a long low east-west ridge, the roughly circular site is defined by a low earthen bank with an external fosse and lacks any visible entrance feature. Dense cover of trees and bushes made the monument difficult to examine, and the 1818 Boyd Belvedere Map of Kilbrennan townland depicts the location as a tree plantation rather than as an antiquity.
