Promontory fort — Report the wrong picture

What is recorded here

Thirty metres of cliff, fifty-two metres of stone, and a flat rectangular heart raised above the rest. The fort leans against the edge of County Meath like a hand gripping the land, its western gap left open for whoever needed to leave before the sea or sky changed their mind.

The following description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Meath' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1987). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 10 July 2007 Semicircular area, backing onto cliff c. 30m high, defined by scarp (diam. 52m NE-SW). Raised rectangular area (dims. 24m NNW-SSE, 19m ENE-WSW ) defined by scarp, in centre. Entrance may have been at WSW.
