What is recorded here

Killarcan holds a forgotten circular home where a seven-metre earthen bank still rounds a thirty-five-metre space. The missing entrance and rushing border suggest people once shaped the land before forgetting its name.

Situated on a slight rise in a low-lying landscape. This is an overgrown circular area (int. diam. c. 35m) defined by an earthen bank (at NW: Wth 7m; int. H 0.8m; ext. H 0.95m) and an external fosse represented by a band of rushes (Wth 2-3m). 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. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
