What is recorded here

In pasture, on a break in the S-facing slope of a ridge. The rath is levelled. The remains consist of a slightly raised oval area (32m N-S; 40m E-W) defined by a scarp (H 0.1-0.4m). The rath is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an embanked circular area and on the 1914 OS 6-inch map as a hachured oval raised area. 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).
