- SL012-008001: Hilltop enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL012-008001-. In pasture, encompassing the highest point on a ridge-top plateau. When approached from S the elevated position is not appreciated, however at N−NE there is a steep fall of ground, which then levels out somewhat to a more gradual slope extending to the rocky coastline 800m away. The location provides extensive views along a strip of coastal pasture, the shoreline and out to sea. Knocknarae is visible to E and the Ox Mountains form the skyline to S. Oval area (126.8m N–S; 111.2m E–W) defined by a broad, flat-based fosse (Wth 5m at top, 2.8m at base; int. D 1.75m, at S) with a substantial external bank (Wth 6.4-6.8m; int. H 2m; ext. H 1.35m, at S). Stone facing is evident on the inner face of the bank at N–NE and W-NW, but this may be relatively modern in date. The original entrance may be at the SE where there is a causeway (Wth 2m) across the fosse, with a corresponding gap in the external bank, now blocked by a low modern field bank. At the S, another section (Wth 4.6m) of the fosse has been partly infilled to form a shallow causeway, leading to two breaks (Wth 1m) in the external bank, separated by a remnant of a field bank that extends to S. The W half of the interior is relatively level, but the E half slopes down from W to E, reflecting the natural ridge slope. Located slightly off-centre to NE within the interior, straddling the slope described above, there is a smaller enclosure (SL012-008002-), now partly levelled. This second enclosure (diam. 61.6m N–S; 52m E–W) occupies much of the internal space in the centre of the larger hilltop enclosure, leaving a clear space of c. 25-30m between it and the enclosing fosse of the larger enclosure. In the NW quadrant of the hilltop enclosure, there is a Napoleonic Era stone-built signal tower (SL012-008003-). A field fence, on a roughly E–W axis, cuts through the N half of the both the hilltop enclosure and the smaller enclosure. Compiled by: Jane O'Shaughnessy Date of upload: 1 April 2015
- SL012-008002: Enclosure, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL012-008002-. Located in the centre of a hilltop enclosure (SL012-008001-). Slightly raised, oval area (61.6m N–S; 52m E–W) defined by a levelled, broadly-slumped bank/scarp (ext. H 0.8m at W, 1.4m at E), and enclosed by an external fosse (Wth 3m), evident as a shallow depression. The interior of the enclosure slopes down from W to E, mirroring the slope within the larger hilltop enclosure. This enclosure occupies most of the central area of the hilltop enclosure, leaving a clear space of c. 25-30m between it and the enclosing fosse of the hilltop enclosure. Immediately to NW of the enclosure, located in the NW quadrant of the larger enclosure, there is a Napoleonic Era signal tower (SL012-008003-).

- SL012-009001: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL012-009001-. Situated on the E-facing slope of a N-S ridge in pasture. Raised circular area (diam. 24m) enclosed by a partly levelled bank of earth and stone (Wth. 3.3m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.1m at S, 2m at E). No fosse. Original entrance not recognisable. A linear depression in the NW quadrant may mark a collapsed souterrain (SL012-009002-). Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL012-009002: Souterrain, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL012-009002-. At a rath (SL012-009001-). Extending S into the internal area from the inner face of the rath bank at NW is a linear depression (L 10m; Wth. 2-3.5m; D 0.5m) which may mark the site of a collapsed souterrain. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL012-010: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL012-010----. Situated atop an E-W ridge in pasture overlooking Sligo Bay c.100m NE. Raised circular area (diam. 34m) enclosed by a bank of earth and stone (Wth. 3m; H 0.7m) which has been modified and incorporated into the field boundary from E-S-SW. No fosse. Breaks in bank at N, NE, SE and SW but original entrance not recognisable. Compiled by: Patrick F. O'Donovan Date of upload: 19 January 2011
- SL012-124: Midden, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL012-124----. Visible in section at top of a cliff at the W end of a shingle beach. There is a ruined vernacular stone cottage immediately to W of the cliff edge. A thin layer (L c. 2.5m N–S; D c. 0.1-0.15m) of periwinkle and limpet shells is visible in section directly beneath the sod layer which caps the cliff. The shell layer is located in the upper levels of a band of stony soil resting directly on the bedrock strata which drops in a vertical cliff face (H c. 3.5-4m) to the shingle beach. The density of shells is meagre. Toward the S end of the layer, a single animal bone and the bowl of a clay pipe are visible. The midden was probably associated with the cottage located 10m to W.

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.
