What is recorded here

In rough, rushy pasture, at the base of a S-facing slope. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m). A roughly circular depression (c. 15m E-W; c. 15-20m N-S; D c. 0.6m), the shallow sloping sides of which merge seamlessly with the base. The depression appears to cut into the base of the natural slope NW-NE but this area has been partially disturbed by a quarry pit (7m E-W; 4m N-S). 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
