What is recorded here
Anomalous stone group in Ardleebeg is an anomalous stone group in Ardleebeg, County Sligo, Ireland. It holds four stones, the largest measuring 1.1m long, 0.8m wide and 0.3m high, around a 1m by 0.7m area. A line of partially sod-covered stones extends 3m south from this group. The stones sit in the west half of the Ardleebeg rath interior, 6m northwest of the hut site.
Not listed in the SMR (1989), but is included in the RMP (1995) where it is classified as 'Man-made underground passage, possible'. This classification is incorrect. It is in fact an irregular setting of four stones (largest stone: L 1.1m; Wth 0.8m; H 0.3m) roughly enclosing an area of 1m x 0.7m and a line of partially sod-covered stones extending 3m to S. It is in the W half of the interior of Ardleebeg rath (SL027-026001-), 6m NW of the hut site (SL027-026002-).
