What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Srananagh is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Srananagh, County Sligo, Ireland. A roughly circular area twenty metres across has a levelled bank and ditch, but a road cuts across its north side. High grass, forest trenches and coniferous trees now cover the ground, hiding the remains from view.

In low-lying poorly drained pasture. A roughly circular area (diam. c. 20m) defined by a levelled bank and fosse, truncated NNW-NNE by a road, is visible as a cropmark in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, G 291-0). This possible rath is levelled and is not visible at ground level. The area is overgrown with high grass, cut by forest trenches and planted with coniferous trees. 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).
