Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Coord Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Irish English Haughey's Fort is a hill fort in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, Шаблон:Convert west of the city of Armagh. It is named after the farmer who owned the land it is situated on in the later 19th century. The large hilltop enclosure that is Haughey's Fort is a Scheduled Historic Monument in the townland of Tray, in Armagh City and District Council area, at grid ref: H8351 4529.[1]
It consists of an oval enclosure, Шаблон:Convert across at its widest point, surrounded by two concentric ditches. Inside the enclosure another ditch encloses an area Шаблон:Convert in diameter. Archaeological excavation shows that it was occupied in the late Bronze Age, ca. 1100 to 900 BC, after which it was abandoned, although some artefacts discovered were of Iron Age date, suggesting that it was later reoccupied. It was contemporary with the nearby artificial pool known as the King's Stables but was abandoned before Navan Fort, Шаблон:Convert to the east, was occupied.
