Coolree Fort

Archaeological place

What is recorded here

Two circular earthen forts face each other across fifty metres of open Kildare pasture, suggesting related families or successive generations shared the same ground. The larger enclosure keeps a forty-two metre interior behind a two and a half metre bank, while thorn and briar now swallow its eastern half. Neither has been excavated, so the true relationship between them remains hidden beneath grass, memory and time.
Coolree Fort is recorded as a archaeological place in County Kildare. Its open map record supplies this location and any linked names or public references.
