What is recorded here

That is certain. Kiltycon contains a large earthen ringfort on a WNW-facing slope in County Longford, Ireland. The oval enclosure measures about 58 metres north-south and 42 metres east-west, with field boundaries preserving its bank and outer ditch. Cattle still walk beside the old fort, while the hidden entrance and vanished stony spread remain absent from the visible ground.

On a WNW-facing slope in pasture. Depicted as a large, roughly heart-shaped enclosure with the designation 'Fort' on the 1837 ed. of the OS 6-inch map. This raised roughly oval area (c. 58m N-S; c. 42m E-W) is defined from E-S-WSW by field boundaries, which almost certainly incorporate the circuit of a bank with an external fosse. Elsewhere its outline is indicated by levelled field boundaries. The original entrance is not recognisable. A report in 1990 (SMR file) noted a stony spread in the interior at W. This feature is no longer visible. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
