What is recorded here

Hachured Forts was a thirty-two-metre earthen ringfort on a Longford pasture slope, its southern entrance facing the valley before ploughing erased the bank and fosse. It may have housed a family, a herder or a forgotten claimant, but the soil has taken that memory back. What remains is the shape of the loss: a circle large enough to hold lives, now invisible under grass.

On a gentle E-facing slope in pasture. A report in 1976 (SMR file) recorded a raised circular area (diam. c. 32m) enclosed by a low bank of earth and stone with an external fosse. The original entrance was at S. The rath has since been levelled and is not visible at ground level. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 26 August 2011
