What is recorded here

Teach Cormac is a circular fairy fort in County Meath, Ireland, defined by a thirty-nine-metre earthen bank, outer fosse and external reach. It sits inside a larger hillfort with a central mound and an east-north-east entrance causeway. The name suggests Cormac, but the shape suggests older hands: a ring built to keep something out or hold something visible.
