What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Lisquillibeen is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Lisquillibeen, County Tipperary, Ireland. Wheeler (1967) described the site as a large, double-banked ringfort with a farmyard immediately to the southwest. The enclosure now sits on a south-facing slope of rising ground in an upland area. It is partially destroyed, covered mainly by silage and partially quarried at the south, making examination impossible due to the condition of the site.
