• SL040-063001 Field system
  Description

  In undulating upland pasture, in the Bricklieve Mountains. A system of field walls, covering an area c. 500m x 300m, defines irregular and subrectangular fields adapted to the natural contours of the ridge slopes and the bedding planes of the limestone outcrop. The fields mostly hug the E-facing slopes overlooking a flat valley which contains a small lake, Lough Gowra. Within the field system is a cluster of cashels (SL040-064001-; SL040-068001-; SL040-071001-), a possible cashel (SL040-070001-), a rath (SL040-069----), a possible rath (SL040-233----), an enclosure (SL040-071002-), two cairns (SL040-066----; SL040-212----), two hut sites (SL040-063002-; SL040-063003-) and a kerb circle (SL040-072----). The field system is visible in aerial photographs (CUCAP, AVI 74-8) taken in 1968 but is now difficult to trace on the ground. A portion of it, including two possible hut sites (SL040-063002-; SL040-063003-), in the area between the cashel (SL040-068001-) and the rath (SL040-069----) has been levelled. Elsewhere the walls survive as fragmented stretches of low sod-covered jumbles of stones (Wth c. 1m). There is a hut site (SL040-065----) within the N end of the field system. The sod-covered foundations of a number of rectangular houses (L c. 8-11m; Wth 2.8-5.2m), probably of 18th or 19th-century date, are also within the field system.

• SL040-065 Hut site
  Description

  In upland pasture, in a natural hollow on the N-facing slope of a knoll in the Bricklieve Mountains and within the N end of a field system (SL040-063001-).

• SL040-069 Ringfort - rath
  Description

  In upland pasture, at a break of slope on the steep NW side of a ridge in the Bricklieve Mountains. The rath lies within a field system (SL040-063001-). It consists of an oval platform (48m NE-SW; 53.5m NW-SE) defined NE-S by an earthen bank (Wth 4m; ext. H 1.6m) with a low internal lip (int. H 0.4m) and elsewhere by a well defined scarp (H 1.6m). A shallow external fosse (Wth 3m; D 0.6m) is evident all round. A degraded counterscarp bank (Wth c. 2m; ext. H 0.2m) is evident W-SE. A NW-SE field boundary wall truncates the counterscarp bank and the outer edge of the fosse SW-W. The centre of the interior appears slightly domed in profile and traces of cultivation ridges are evident in the NE quadrant. Close to the scarp at S is a small circular depression (3m E-W; 2m N-S; D 0.5m) marked by thistles. A deeper linear pit (9m NE-SW; 2-3m NW-SE; D 1m) cuts through the top of the scarp at SW and extends into the interior. Some quarrying of the scarp face has occurred NNW-NE. There are several breaks in the bank and the scarp due to erosion by farm stock. A possible entrance (Wth 2.3m) is at ENE with a ramp-like slope to an infilled section of the fosse and a corresponding break (Wth 4m) in the counterscarp bank. A possible rath (SL040-233----) lies c. 16m to SE.

According to local information, the area was cleared of stone in the 1970s and the site levelled. The barely discernible outline of a subrectangular area (c. 22m NE-SW; 15m NW-SE) was noted, defined at NE by the edge of the ravine and elsewhere by a slight rise.

• SL040-129001 Mill - unclassified
  Description

  Listed in both the SMR (1989) and RMP (1995) and classified 'Mill Possible' and 'Mill' respectively. Not indicated on any edition of the OS 6-inch map. In the bottom of a U-shaped valley, adjacent to a stream and c. 170m S of Lough Labe. A linear earthen bank (L 15m; Wth 2.9m; H 1m) and fosse (Wth 2.9m; D 0.9m) may be the remains of a millrace.

This possible rath is visible as a shadow site in an aerial photograph (CUCAP, AVI 78) taken in 1968. It is now levelled and the remains consist of a slightly raised circular area (diam. c. 20m) defined S-SW by a scarp (H 0.6m) which merges with the steep natural slope; elsewhere the raised area merges into the surrounding field. A NNW-SSE field boundary crosses the W edge of the interior. A rath (SL040-069---) lies c. 16m to NW. 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).

• SL040-247 Enclosure
  Description

  In rough pasture, located on a small terrace on the SE-facing slope of a ridge, overlooked immediately to NW by Kesh Corran. The ridge flanks the W side of a narrow pass, traversed now by a by-road. There is a settlement cluster (SL040-067001-) at the base of the W-facing slope of the parallel ridge, which flanks the E side of the pass. Views are blocked NW−E by higher ground, but the terrace has excellent views SE−SW over a broad sweep of undulating countryside, with a rath (SL040-069----) clearly visible on a hill top 335m to S. This enclosure is not shown on the 1837 and 1914 OS 6-inch maps. It consists of a roughly circular area (23m E−W; 20m N−S) defined by low remnants of a wall. The enclosure encompasses most of the level space available on the small terrace. The N arc is cut into the rising ridge slope, so that it is defined by an inward-facing scarp (H 0.8-1.4m), which is topped by the ruined, grass-covered remnants of a later E−W field wall. At NE−WNW, the enclosing wall can be traced as a low, moss-covered rise or stone bank (Wth 1m; H 0.1-0.2). At SSE−SW it coincides with the break of slope of the terrace, where the ridge slope falls away steeply. The interior is level. A wall, evident as a low, grass-covered stony bank (Wth 0.6-1m), extend across the S half of the interior on a roughly E−W axis. This wall must post-date the enclosure, as it appears to continue beyond the enclosure, downslope to SE. In the N half of the interior, a low, sod-covered fragment of a N−S wall extends from the scarp at N for 5-6m to S through the centre of the interior; it is possible that this is a remnant of a rectangular structure or house, but the remains are exiguous, and this interpretation is uncertain.

• SL040-253 Burnt mound
  Description

  Located on the W bank of a stream, in a shallow, boggy, rush-grown valley at the foot of the NE side of Kesh Corann. A passage tomb (SL040-006001-) crowns the top of a steep-sided hill which rises immediately to W of the stream. There is a rath (SL040-007----) 100m to SE on the low ridge that borders the E side of the stream. A layer of burnt stone in dark soil with charcoal inclusions is exposed in section immediately beneath the sod line in the W bank of the N-flowing stream. The nature and extent of the layer is uncertain as it is visible only along a short section (L 1m) of the stream edge which has been eroded by cattle. A slight rise in ground level (L 2-3m N-S; Wth 1-1.5m) is evident in a narrow strip parallel to the stream, but it is not possible to trace the original limits/outline of the possible burnt mound. A small deposit of burnt stone is also exposed in the E bank of the stream. Compiled by: Jane O’Shaughnessy Date of upload: 26 November 2019

• SL040-254 Enclosure
  Description

  In upland pasture, located on a small terrace on the SE-facing slope of a ridge, overlooked immediately to NW by Kesh Corran. The ridge flanks the W side of a narrow pass, traversed now by a by-road. There is a settlement cluster (SL040-067001-) on the lower slopes of the parallel ridge, flanking the E side of the pass. Rising ground restricts views to NW−E, but the terrace has excellent views SE−SW over a broad sweep of undulating countryside, with a rath (SL040-069----) clearly visible on a hill top 335m to S. At W ground falls away from the edge of the terrace into a small valley. This enclosure is not indicated on the OS 6-inch maps. The remains are scant and barely discernible at ground level. The indistinct outline of a circular area (diam. 18-20m) is defined by a slight undulating rise, stony underfoot, and in parts by a cropmark/differential grass growth. On the SW arc a low stony scarp (ext. H 0.3-0.4m) can be traced. The interior area is level and not noticeably raised. A telegraph pole stands on the NW edge of the enclosure. There is another enclosure (SL040-247----) 20m to SSE on a lower terrace on the same slope.
