What is recorded here

Indicated (1838). is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Cloongoonagh, County Sligo, Ireland. The site sits on a low rise beside a western bog, but extensive quarrying removed the embankment and hidden the rath from ground view. The 1838 Ordnance Survey map still marks a circular area about sixty metres across in the marshy ground.

On top of a low rise, with a bog immediately to W. This possible rath is not visible at ground level. The area was extensively quarried in the past. The possible rath is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an embanked circular area (diam. c. 60m) in marshy ground. 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).
