What is recorded here

Caltragh is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Coolskeagh, County Sligo, Ireland. The oval earthwork stands on an east-facing slope above Loughymeenaghan, where its western bank still marks a field boundary while the southern edge has been quarried away.

In pasture, on an E-facing slope overlooking Loughymeenaghan. A raised oval area (int. diam. 26m x 19.5m) enclosed by the remains of an earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H c. 1m; ext. H c. 1m) along the W arc where it functions as a field boundary. The bank is poorly preserved elsewhere and quarried into at 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).
