What is recorded here

The ritual site (pond) in Treanmore (corran By.) is in County Sligo, Ireland. It is an oval, flat-bottomed depression measuring 12 metres north-south and 10 metres east-west, positioned immediately north of the Treanmore ring-barrow. A 1.1-metre-high scarp defines its edge, while waterlogging and central peat growth fill the basin. The feature may serve a ritual purpose connected to the nearby barrow.
