What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Lustia, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies the crest of an east-facing drumlin slope as a subcircular platform measuring twenty-seven metres east-west and twenty-three point seven metres north-south. A low scarp rises from zero point five to zero point nine metres around the edge, but no fosse or entrance remains visible. The surrounding coniferous forest has been cleared, and the area is now excluded from re-planting.
