What is recorded here

In low-lying pasture, on a rise at the base of a W-facing slope. A roughly circular area (diam. 25.5m N-S) defined by a slight scarp NW-E and by an earth and stone bank (Wth 4m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 0.7m) E-SW. The W edge of the rath is truncated by a N-S field boundary and there is a wide gap in the bank at SE. 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).
