What is recorded here

Kinnagoe Stone Ringfort is a ruined cashel on the lower east slope of Kinnagoe Hill, reduced now to a small southern arc of stones. The surviving stones may have formed inner and outer facings around a rubble core, suggesting a substantial circular enclosure that time and terrain have mostly erased. It sits in rough rocky ground where the shape of the fort has nearly dissolved into the hill itself, leaving behind a fragment rather than a monument.

Only the small portion of a S arc of stones remains of the subcircular single-ringed enclosure shown on the 1st and 2nd editions of the OS 6-inch map. It is possible that these stones represent an inner and outer facing for a rubble or small stone core. It is situated on the lower E slope of Kinnagoe Hill in rough rocky terrain.
