notes: 'Imported in bulk from the Irish Sites and Monuments Record. CORROBORATED: Wikidata
  independently records this monument (Q24883427, joined on the SMR identifier) and classes
  it contour fort, motte-and-bailey castle, agreeing that it is a fortification. Two independent
  registers rather than one, hence confidence: medium. The verdict stays register-derived
  — corroboration is evidence, not assessment, and nobody has yet applied this band''s criterion
  to the structure itself. Only fortified_residence carries a verdict; every other band is
  OMITTED rather than set to no. The register''s own finer class is kept on the register_entry,
  so the strict Anglo-Norman reading stays recoverable from the data without re-querying the
  service.'
