• SL035-095 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In pasture, on an E-facing slope and immediately S of a stream. A slightly raised circular area (int. diam. 29.4m x 32.2m) enclosed by an earthen bank (Wth 3.2m; int. H 0.75m; ext. H 1.25m). A possible entrance (Wth 2.3m) is at SE. The interior slopes gently down to N. The surrounding ground slopes down steeply to N towards the stream. 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).

• SL035-096 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  On a steep wooded slope. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as a roughly circular embanked area (diam. c. 30m) at the junction of four field boundaries. This possible rath is not visible at ground level. The only remains of it visible in an aerial photograph (GSIAP, G 272-3) are arcs of two concentric banks SE-S.

• SL035-097001 Megalithic tomb - court tomb
  Description

  On sloping ground in thin-soiled pasture with an outlook to the S. The tomb stands in a subrectangular mound (19.5m N-S; 12.5m E-W) (SL035-097002-). Two possible kerbstones are exposed inside the edge of the mound at the SE and another at the NW. The tomb, which faces N, consists of the scant remains of a court represented by an entrance jamb to the E and alongside it a courtstone leading to a gallery (L 9m; Wth 2m) divided into a very short antechamber and three main chambers. A transeptal chamber opens off each side of the first main chamber and just over 2m beyond the gallery a subsidiary chamber opens to the E. A jamb just 0.4m behind the eastern entrance jamb separates the antechamber from the first main chamber. Two stones form each side of this chamber and gaps between them allow entry to the transeptal chambers, the western formed by two stones on each side and a backstone and the eastern represented by opposed stones at its inner end and a backstone. Two jambs, the eastern possibly partly displaced, separate the first main chamber from the second each side of which is formed by two stones. A long sill, flanked at either side by jambs, separates the last from the rear chamber. The W side of this chamber is formed by two stones, only the innermost orthostat survives on the E side, and it is closed by a backstone. The subsidiary chamber is represented by a backstone and two adjoining sidestones. (Ó Nualláin 1989, 69-70, no. 111) Two previously recorded orthostats were noted in 2020: one at the N end of the W wall of the middle chamber of the gallery; the other at the W end of the N wall of the E transeptal chamber (pers. comm. Sam Moore).

• SL035-101 Barrow - unclassified
  Description

  In elevated pasture, on the summit of a ridge with excellent views in all directions. A circular raised area (diam. 7.4m) defined by an earthen bank (int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.5m). An external fosse (D 0.4m) is evident NNE-NNW; the fosse is truncated at N by an oval flat-bottomed pond-like depression (12m N-S; 10m E-W) which lies 2m from the base of the bank. The depression is defined by a scarp (H 1.1m) and is waterlogged with some peat growth at its centre. This may be a ritual feature associated with the barrow. Traces of a low external bank (Wth 1.5m; H 0.25m) around the barrow, noted during a previous site inspection in 1993 (SMR (1989) file), are no longer visible. 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).

The sloping interior is filled with loose stones and there is a souterrain (SL041-015002-) adjacent to the cashel wall at E. Low sod-covered field boundaries to SE and SW may be associated with the cashel.
