The Brusselstown Ring archaeological find in County Wicklow, Ireland, is a massive prehistoric hillfort with over 600 house platforms, making it the largest nucleated settlement found in prehistoric Britain and Ireland, dating to the Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age (around 1200-800 BC). This discovery, part of the Baltinglass Hillfort Cluster, challenges ideas about early Irish towns, suggesting large, complex settlements emerged centuries earlier than previously thought, with evidence of organized structures like potential water cisterns and dense housing.
