Enclosure in Rosmore

In poorly drained pasture, at the base of a ridge. A raised oval area (14m N-S; 11m E-W) enclosed by an earthen bank (max. int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1m). The bank is levelled in parts and survives as a scarp with a slight internal lip. Possible entrances are at N and S, where the slope to the exterior is more gradual. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
