What is recorded here

Fairy fort / earthen ringfort in Ballyglass (tireragh By., Dromore Ed) is a fairy fort or earthen ringfort in Ballyglass (tireragh By., Dromore Ed), County Sligo, Ireland. The slightly raised circular area measures 22m across and sits on the east side of a north-west to south-east ridge. An earthen bank encloses the space, showing a steeper external slope at the north-east because the rath straddles a natural slope. A field boundary cuts the bank from east-north-east to south, while a two-metre break at the south does not appear to be the original entrance.

Situated at the E side of the top of a NW-SE ridge. Slightly raised circular area (diam. 22m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 2.8-3m; int. H 0.1m at NE, 0.65m at SW; ext. H 1.2m at NE; 0.6m at SW). The rath straddles a natural slope which results in a more pronounced external slope to the bank at NE. From ENE-S, the bank is truncated by a NE-SW field boundary. There is a break (Wth. 2m) in bank at S but it does not appear to be the original entrance. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
