This one offers none of those things. A circular enclosure once sat in a level pasture field near Cill Mhuire on the Dingle Peninsula, clearly enough defined to be plotted on Ordnance Survey maps, yet today there is no visible trace of it whatsoever. The ground has closed over entirely, leaving a field that gives nothing away.

When a researcher identified as Curran recorded the site, he described it as a lios, the Irish term for a ringfort, roughly 100 feet (about 30.5 metres) in diameter. Ringforts are enclosed farmsteads of the early medieval period, typically defined by one or more circular earthen banks, and they are among the most common monument types in Ireland. What made this one more than a simple enclosure were the details gathered within it. Curran noted traces of two clocháns, small dry-stone corbelled structures of a kind associated with early Christian and pre-Norman occupation in the west of Ireland. He was also told that a rough quern stone, the kind of hand-operated grain-grinding implement used throughout the early medieval period, had been found inside. Local knowledge added another layer: there was said to be a souterrain at the site, an underground stone-lined passage or chamber that often served as storage or a place of refuge and is found in association with ringforts across Ireland. The record of the site draws on J. Cuppage's 1986 archaeological survey of the Corca Dhuibhne area of the Dingle Peninsula, a detailed regional study that captured many sites before they disappeared from the surface entirely. This one, it seems, had already been fading for some time before the survey committed it to paper.
