Recorded monuments

• LE015-036 Ringfort - unclassified
  Description

  Located towards the bottom of a W-facing slope with an E-W stream curving around it on the N side in a coniferous forest. It is depicted as a circular embanked enclosure (diam. c. 25-30m) on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a 'fort' and as a circular hachured feature (diam. c. 25m) 1907 edition. The location was not planted but it is now completely overgrown. No feature is visible at ground level but it was probably a ringfort. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 13 December 2011

H 0.8-1.1m), which is reduced to a scarp (H 0.5m) at S. The straight side is at W, and a possible external fosse, or an old drain, is indicated by a band of rushes (Wth 1m) at E. An original entrance is not identified but it probably was a rath. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J.
