What is recorded here

Field system in Treanscrabbagh is a field system in Treanscrabbagh, County Sligo, Ireland. It occupies rocky pasture on a west-facing slope in the Bricklieve Mountains beside a cashel. A ruinous discontinuous sod-covered boundary one point four metres wide and zero point six metres high touches the north side of the cashel, while a more continuous limestone and sandstone boundary one point two metres wide and zero point five metres high touches the south side. A passage tomb and two short cists lie about eighty metres east.

In rocky pasture, on a W-facing slope in the Bricklieve Mountains and adjacent to a cashel (SL040-082001-). A ruinous discontinuous sod-covered field boundary (Wth 1.4m; H 0.6m), of similar construction to the cashel wall, is evident on the N side of the cashel. A second more continuous field boundary (Wth 1.2m; H 0.5m) of limestone and sandstone is adjacent to the S side of the cashel. A passage tomb (SL040-097001-) and two short cists (SL040-097002-) lie c. 80m to E.
