Recorded monuments

• SL034-228 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  In rocky undulating pasture, partially straddling a gentle slope with excellent views in all directions. A large oval area (38m N-S; 44m E-W) defined by a rubble limestone wall (int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1.2m). A drystone field boundary wall lies on top of the cashel wall W-ENE. The interior is undulating and uneven with many limestone outcrops and grass-covered stones; the SW end slopes gently down to SW. An internal division of the NE quadrant forms a smaller oval enclosure (30m NW-SE; 14m NE-SW) defined by a curving rubble stone bank (H 0.5m) linked to the cashel wall at N and E. The interior of this area is undulating and uneven with rock outcrops and grass-covered stones. 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).

• SL034-233001 Barrow - mound barrow
  Description

  In undulating rocky pasture, on a slight S-facing slope and within a field system (SL034-233002-). A roughly circular raised area (diam. 10m) defined by an earth and stone scarp (H 0.6m). The interior is undulating with numerous moss-covered rocks. A disused N-S drystone field boundary crosses the interior W of centre. 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

• SL034-233002 Field system
  Description

  In rough karst pasture, on a terrrace overlooking Lough Arrow to W. This entire area is strewn with naturally occurring rubble limestone and limestone outcrops. Lengths of low sinuous field walls of rubble limestone are visible in certain areas but the overall pattern cannot be determined in the absence of detailed topographic survey. There is a mound-barrow (SL034-233001-) within the field system. Compiled by: Archaeological Survey Unit, UCC with revisions by Patrick F. O'Donovan and Paul Walsh Date of upload: 20 June 2011

• SL040-054 Enclosure
  Description

  On a level terrace, on a steep S-facing slope broken by rock outcrops and engulfed in a dense hazel and blackthorn wood. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular enclosure (diam. c. 20m). A subcircular area (diam. c. 20m) is now defined N-E by a collapsed wall and SE-S by a roughly constructed drystone wall (Wth 0.5m; H 0.5-0.7m) similar to field boundary walls in the vicinity. The collapsed wall survives as a broad low jumble of stones (Wth 2-2.5m; H 0.5m). The wall SE-S coincides with the break of slope at the edge of the terrace. The W half of the enclosure could not be inspected due to impenetrable overgrowth. 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).

• SL040-055001 Ringfort - cashel
  Description

  In a thicket of hazel and hawthorn scrub, utilising a level terrace on a S-facing slope. An oval area (30.6m NW-SE; 23m NE-SW) enclosed by a collapsed, moss-covered wall of limestone rubble (Wth 3m). In parts at E and SE large slabs and blocks are visible protruding from the rubble, remnants of the basal course of an internal and external stone facing indicating that the wall was originally c. 2m in width. From SE-SW, where the wall coincides with the break of slope at the edge of the terrace, it is reduced to a thin scattering of stone topping a scarp (H 1m) covered with stone tumble. The scarp drops to a level terrace (Wth 3m) from which the ridge slopes down steeply. The interior is level and broken by rock outcrops in places. A N-S field boundary wall (Wth 0.6m) clips the perimeter W-NW. There is a gap (Wth c. 1.5m) at NW, now partially blocked by a field boundary wall. There is a possible hut site (SL040-055002-) in the NW quadrant, flanking the entrance. 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).

• SL040-055002 Hut site
  Description

  In the NW quadrant of a cashel (SL040-055001-), partially flanking the gap in the cashel wall at NW. A low seam of rock outcrop extends 4.5m into the cashel interior and appears to form the SW side of a concentration of stones and rock outcrops with a rectangular outline (c. 4.5m NW-SE; 2.4m NE-SW). 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).
