Dún Eochla Stone Fort (3D Sampled Pointcloud Model)
GA110-138----
In a prominent position, close to E end of a ridge, on Inis Mór. This Nat. Mon., known locally as Dún Eochla, is a restored bivallate cashel, defined by an inner oval drystone rampart (N-S 27.3m, E-W 22.7m) and an outer subrectangular one (N-S 76.1m, E-W 50.4m). The inner rampart has two internal terraces with interconnecting steps, and an entrance at NE. The interior contained two houses of which no visible surface trace survives; a circular clearance cairn now stands in the centre. The outer rampart, also partly terraced, has an entrance at SSE. (O'Flanagan 1927a, Vol. 3, 230-40; Weir 1980, 260; Westropp 1895, 260)
