What is recorded here

In the NW quadrant of a cashel (SL040-125001-). An L-shaped trench (Wth 1.6m top, 0.9m base; D 0.65m) extends from a point close to the enclosing cashel wall at NNW for 6.7m to SSE then turns to SW for a further 2m. A few stones protrude from the sod-covered sides. The SW end is partially infilled with loose stone. This is possibly a dugout souterrain passage. A second possible souterrain (SL040-125003-) is c. 6m to SSE. 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).
