What is recorded here

In pasture on the S-facing slope of a ridge. Named ‘Lisnagee’ on both the first (1837) and Cassini (1920) editions of the OS 6-inch map. An almost completely overgrown and barely accessible circular area (est. int. diam. c. 30m NE-SW) is defined by a broad, high bank (int. H 0.5m; Wth 9m; ext H 2.6m) at NE and by a low scarp (H 1m) along the SW. The SE sector has been dug away and partially encroached upon by two now derelict buildings, as shown on the OS 25-inch map (1893). The monument stands at the N tip of Cornanaff townland and the boundary with neighbouring Strade townland to the N runs along the limits of the rath NW-N-NE. A second ringfort (MA070-121001-) lies c. 130m to the NW and there is a third ringfort (MA070-123----) c. 80m to the SE. Date of visit: 13-05-2025 Compiled by: Gearóid Conroy
