What is recorded here

Hut site in Tully (corran By.) is a hut site in Tully (corran By.), County Sligo, Ireland. It occupies the south-east quadrant of a rath, built on or against the rath's enclosing bank. The possible rectangular structure measures about 9 metres north-east to south-west and 5 metres north-west to south-east. A low, degraded earthen bank about 0.5 metre wide and 0.3 metre high forms its remains, though many gaps and dense gorse obscure the shape.

In the SE quadrant of a rath (SL040-027001-), built on or against the rath's enclosing bank. The remains of a possible rectangular structure (c. 9m NE-SW; c. 5m NW-SE) which is largely engulfed in gorse and brambles. The hut site was difficult to inspect but it appears to be constructed of a low, very degraded earthen bank (Wth c. 0.5m, H 0.3m) with many gaps. Doorways, described as a 'N and S doorway' noted during a previous site inspection in 1978 (SMR (1989) file) are no longer discernible due to the overgrowth. 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).
