What is recorded here

Indicated is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Martry, County Roscommon, Ireland. It occupies a circular grass-covered area on the north-facing slope of a low east-west ridge. A scarp rises one to two metres around the perimeter, though erosion has weakened the southwest and west sections. A field bank circumvents the west edge while a quarry lies outside the northeast boundary.
On the N-facing slope of a low E-W ridge. Circular grass-covered area (diam. 32.5m E-W; 31.5m N-S) defined by a scarp (H 1.1m generally to 2m at N). The perimeter is eroded SW-W, and a field bank circumvents the perimeter at W while a quarry lies outside the perimeter to the NE. There is no visible fosse or entrance.
