What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Silverfort is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Silverfort, County Tipperary, Ireland. It sits on a southeast-facing slope in improved pasture, where barely traceable remains define a circular area about 25 metres across through the faint outline of a fosse. A 1954 sketch plan and profiles depict the monument as roughly circular and enclosed by a bank, while a 1982 account describes it as being in fair condition with one bank and one ditch.
