What is recorded here

On a SE-facing slope, close to the top of a drumlin. This possible rath is not visible at ground level. It was indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an embanked circular area (diam. c. 30m). Only a NNE-SE curving field boundary, possibly incorporating the bank of the enclosure, is indicated on the 1914 OS 6-inch map. 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). Date of upload: 18 January 2008
