What is recorded here

In rough pasture, near the base of the S-facing slope of a ridge. A circular area (diam. c. 30m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H 1.1m; ext. H 0.4m) NNW-ENE, a stone-faced scarp (H 1.4m) ENE-SW and incorporated into an overgrown field boundary SW- NNW. The S half of the interior is slightly raised to compensate for the hillslope though it still retains a slope down to S. The perimeter and part of the interior are densely covered with overgrowth. 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).
