• SL026-100 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on a SE-facing slope. A circular platform (int. diam. 26m; H c. 2m) defined on top by traces of an earthen bank and at the base by a fosse. The bank is levelled along the E and S arcs and barely perceptible elsewhere. The fosse (Wth 5m) is straight-sided and best evident along the N arc. The fosse has been recently infilled along the NE arc. There is a causeway (Wth 4m) across fosse at SE. Some quarrying was noted in the S half of the interior. 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). Date of upload: 18 January 2008

• SL026-137 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a gentle N-facing slope, straddling the townland boundary between Carrickbanagher and Lissaneena. A circular area (int. diam. 24m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 2.5m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 1.6m). Traces of an external fosse (Wth 2.4m; D 0.4m) are evident E-S. There is a causeway (Wth 4m) across the fosse at E. The rath is planted with trees and bisected by a N-S field boundary and deep drain.

• SL026-138 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on the NW end of a ridge with excellent views. A roughly circular area (int. diam. 19m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 4m; int. H 1.2m; ext. H 1.4m) E-N. The bank is levelled N-E, as indicated on the 1913 OS 6-inch map, and, where it survives, is generally eroded by cattle.

Date of upload: 18 January 2008

• SL026-139 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  On a ridge, in undulating pasture with excellent views of the surrounding countryside. A circular area (int. diam. 21m) enclosed by a grass-covered stone wall (T 2.2m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 0.5m).

Date of upload: 18 January 2008

• SL026-140 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, utilising a steep-sided rocky knoll rising from the SE end of a ridge. A flat oval area (26.4m NE-SW; 17.5m NW-SE) encompassing the top of the knoll is defined by a high steep scarp (H 2.6m) broken by exposed limestone bedrock at SE and SW. The scarp drops to a gently sloping terrace or berm (Wth 4-6m) from which the natural knoll slope falls steeply for several metres (H c. 6m), giving the rath a two-tiered profile. There is an entrance (Wth 2m) at NNE. A low stony bank (Wth c. 2m) tops the scarp on either side of the entrance. In the interior, 5m SW of the entrance, a few large stones protrude from the sod, though their function could not be determined. At NE is an irregular-shaped hollow (8m N-S; 6m E-W; D 0.5m), probably the result of recent disturbance. There is a possible souterrain (SL026-140001-) in the SE quadrant. A cashel (SL026-139----) lies c. 200m to NNW on the same ridge. Immediately to S the rath is overlooked by a higher ridge crowned by 'The Cashel' hilltop enclosure (SL026-141----), c. 190m to NNW.

• SL026-140001 Souterrain
  Description

  In the SE quadrant of a rath (SL026-140----). A linear trench (Wth 1.3m; D 0.5m) extends for 5m to NW from the scarp at SSE into the interior of the rath. The NW end of the trench is faced with a single large stone. 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). Date of upload: 18 January 2008

• SL026-141 Hilltop enclosure
  Description

  In undulating pasture, on top of a ridge with excellent views of the surrounding countryside. Named 'The Cashel' on the 19 OS 6-inch map, this hilltop enclosure, consists of an oval area (65m N-S; 50m E-W) enclosed by a stone wall. The wall, which is highest along the W arc (T 0.6m; H 1.3m), has a rubble core with a facing of stone. Condit, Gibbons and Timoney (1991, 61-2) suggest that a gap through the wall at S may be the original entrance. The interior rises towards the centre. A field boundary indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map bisecting the interior on a NW-SE axis, was not indicated on the 1913 OS 6-inch map. A rath (SL026-140----) lies c. 190m 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).
