What is recorded here

Fairy fort / stone ringfort in Lugawarry is a fairy fort or stone ringfort in Lugawarry, County Sligo, Ireland. It occupies a gentle north-facing pasture slope as a roughly circular cashel with a 28 metre diameter and a stone wall reaching 2 metres externally. Dense growth blocks entry to the interior, where a possible man-made underground passage occupies the west half while a north-south field boundary cuts the east edge.

The cashel is densely overgrown and access to the interior was not gained. The E edge is truncated by a N-S field boundary. There is a possible Man-made underground passage (SL020-148002-) in the W half of the interior.
