What is recorded here

Marked 'Fort' on OS 1836 and 1876 eds. Situated on W shoulder of an area of high ground. A circular area (diam. c. 26m) enclosed by the remains of a substantial earthen bank and a narrow, deep, partly waterlogged fosse from SW-W-N, both of which have been modified and incorporated into the field boundary. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 December 2008
