What is recorded here

Fairy fort / ringfort in Kilcreggane is a fairy fort or ringfort in Kilcreggane, County Waterford, Ireland. The 1840 Ordnance Survey six-inch map marked a circular embanked enclosure about 35 metres across. That same inventory recorded the site in pasture on a low rise about 35 metres from the south bank of the east-west Nier river, but it was not visible at ground level during the inspection that produced the account.

Situated in pasture on a low rise c. 35m from the S bank of the E-W Nier river, it is not visible at ground level. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Waterford' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1999).
