What is recorded here

Fairy fort / ringfort in Creggyconnell is a fairy fort or ringfort in Creggyconnell, County Sligo, Ireland. The site occupied a broad ridge running northwest to southeast through rocky poor pasture. It appeared as a circular area about twenty metres wide on the 1940-1 map but was absent from the 1836-7 edition. The ground has since been levelled, removing all visible remains.
