## Recorded monuments (Sites and Monuments Record, National Monuments Service)

- SL026-134: Barrow - mound barrow, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL026-134----. In flat pasture, c. 250m E of the Owenmore River. A circular mound (22.5m E-W; H 4.4m) slightly levelled out towards the top with a short step up to a flat-topped crest; a considerable amount of material has been quarried from the SW quadrant (pers. comm. J. Farrelly and M. Keane). Most of this monument was removed in the course of land reclamation undertaken in early 2008. 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). Revised by: Paul Walsh Date of upload: 22 February 2008
- SL026-135: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL026-135----. In gently undulating low-lying pasture, on top of a natural hillock, at the base of a NE-SW ridge. A raised oval area (22.5m N-S; 15.1m E-W) defined by two earthen banks and an intervening fosse WSW-E with the enclosing elements along the SE arc destroyed by quarrying. The inner earthen bank (int. H 0.45m; ext. H 3.6m), WSW-E, is constructed along the edge of the summit of the hillock while the outer earthen bank (int. H 0.4m; ext. H 2.8m), SW-WSW and W-NNE, is constructed close to the base of the hillock. The base of the fosse (Wth 2.1m at base), situated just inside the outer bank, lies above the level of the surrounding field as it is cut into the lower slopes of the hillock. The sides of the hillock, between the inner and outer banks, have a very steep incline, suggesting that they have been scarped to increase the natural slope. The fosse and bank are replaced by a level area or terrace (Wth 6m) NNE-E. The quarry has removed the internal and external bank and approximately one-fifth of the interior in the SE sector. The remaining interior of the rath is level and clear of overgrowth. The rath overlooks a rail track and the Owenmore River 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). Date of upload: 18 January 2008
- SL033-009: Mound, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL033-009----. On the W side of a road and railway line. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an oval mound (c. 40m NE-SW) and named 'Mound'. A gravel and clay ridge in the area of the site is now almost totally quarried away and there are no visible remains of the earthwork. 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

A townland is the smallest land division of Ireland, and the unit of a rural address; old registers such as the 1901 and 1911 censuses file it under its civil parish and barony.

---

Everytownland reads the registered freehold land and the statutory boundaries of Tailte Éireann, the national zoning, planning file and heritage records of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, and the Residential Property Price Register. A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner. A price is the price recorded for a past sale, not a valuation.
