Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Leaffony is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Leaffony, County Sligo, Ireland. It occupies a gentle southeast-facing slope about 150 metres south of the Cabragh River. A degraded earthen bank and low scarp define a circular area 23.5 metres wide, while a raised feature obscured by overgrowth sits outside the southern bank.
