What is recorded here

Enclosure in Streamstown (leyny By., Ballysadare West Ed) is an enclosure in Streamstown (leyny By., Ballysadare West Ed), County Sligo, Ireland. It occupies a slightly raised oval area in pasture near a prominent hillock. A low grass-covered earth and stone bank encloses the eastern and southern edges, while a scarp marks the western arc. The remaining bank has been levelled, leaving a faint outline and a field boundary wall crossing the interior.

In pasture, a short distance WSW from the top of a prominent hillock. A slightly raised, roughly oval area (34.7m WNW-ESE; 23.3m NNE-SSW) enclosed ENE-S by a low grass-covered bank of earth and stone (Wth 4.3m; int. H 0.65m; ext. H 1m) and by a scarp (H 0.4m) along the W arc. For the remainder of the circuit the bank has been levelled and its outline is now identifiable in only a few places. A field boundary wall (long axis NNE-SSW) crosses the W half of the interior. 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).
