What is recorded here

In the S half of a rath (SL026-026001-), close to the scarp of the rath at S. A low roughly circular rise (14m N-S; 13m E-W), marked by long grass and brambles, from which loose stones protrude, especially on the E side. Within the S edge of the rise is a collapsed roofless souterrain passage (L 4m N-S, Wth 1m; D 1m), choked with brambles. At the N end is an in situ lintel covering a low opening (H 0.3m) to a drystone-built passage which extends to the N. Roughly 10m to N, protruding from the ground, are two further in situ lintels, 1.3m apart. 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).
