Description
Situated on a SE-facing slope in gently undulating terrain. A circular area (diam. 34m N-S; 36m E-W) surrounded by an earthen bank (Wth 2.3m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 1.4m) with external drystone revetment. No visible entrance feature. Sycamore trees grow on top of the bank and in the interior. There is a build up of clay in the SW quadrant against the inner face of the bank. The height and substantial nature of the bank suggests that this was a ringfort which became a landscape feature of the Castle Fogarty estate. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Tipperary. Vol. 1 - North Tipperary' compiled by Jean Farrelly and Caimin O'Brien (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2002). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 22 September 2008
