What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Kilroosky, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a low-lying landscape as a circular overgrown area measuring forty metres east-west and thirty-eight metres north-south. An earthen bank and hedge define the boundary, while a fosse runs north-northeast to south. A three-point-nine-metre entrance at the north-northeast is probably not original.
