What is recorded here

Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Ardnaglass Lower is a fairy fort or stone ringfort in Ardnaglass Lower, County Sligo, Ireland. The slightly raised oval area sits on a small rise in low-lying wet pasture and measures 20m east-west by 17m north-south. A rubble limestone bank 5.3m wide and 0.5m high encloses the space, with a 1.2m break at the northeast marking the original entrance. A single limestone slab lies on edge along the north side of that opening, while a disused rectangular quarry hole cuts into the inner southern face of the bank.
