Lisnagade, Hillfort and archaeological site near Banbridge, Northern Ireland
The circular earthwork contains three substantial banks with accompanying ditches, reaching heights of 6 meters and spanning 110 meters in diameter.
Dating from approximately 350 AD, the fort underwent cleaning of its ditches in 1832, revealing silver coins, brass cauldrons, and spear heads.
The name Lisnagade originates from Irish 'Lios na gCéad', translating to 'ringfort of the hundred' in the English language.
The fort remains open for public visits throughout the year, located three miles west of Banbridge along Lisnagade Road 62.
A smaller circular rath connects to the main structure through two straight ditches, featuring a transition from square house to rectangular barn.
