(NR 5236 6492) Fort, Dunan an Roail

Information from RCAHMS to OS.

NR 5237 6494. Edging the summit area of a steep-sided rocky hillock are the scant remains of a small fort. It is sub-oval in plan and measures overall 25.0m NE-SW by 17.0m; an entrance is no longer evident, but the only reasonable approach is from the SW. A four-metre length of base-course is visible in the NW quarter, but the wall otherwise is only apparent in very intermittent sparse rubble. There is no sign of any outwork.

Surveyed at 1:10 000.

Visited by OS (J M) 15 May 1978.
