What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Knockanglass (Killenaule parish) is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Knockanglass (Killenaule parish), County Tipperary, Ireland. The oval enclosure measures 47 metres north-south and 44.5 metres east-west on the west slope of a hill. An inner bank, flat-bottomed ditch and outer bank define the perimeter, though the outer bank is missing in the east quadrant and field boundaries have absorbed parts of the banks in the east and south. A gap in the west-northwest breaks through all three features, and the interior holds scrub and brambles in its western portion.
