- SL025-021 Ringfort - rath
Description
On a slight rise, in boggy ground; the area around the rath has been recently planted with trees. A raised roughly circular area (diam. c. 25m) enclosed by the remains of an earthen bank which is best evident at NW (Wth 2.4m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 0.85m) and levelled along the E and S arcs. A shallow external depression (Wth c. 3m; D 0.4m), evident all round, is probably the remains of a silted-up fosse. The rath is densely overgrown with hawthorn and gorse. There is a mature coniferous forest immediately to 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).

- SL025-053 Ringfort - rath
Description
In undulating pasture, on the E-facing slope of a ridge. A slightly raised circular area (28m WNW-ESE) enclosed by an earthen bank, apart from a section (L 16m) NW-N where the bank has been levelled. The bank (Wth 3.7m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 0.85m) has traces of possible internal and external stone facing. A slight external depression (Wth 3m), evident SSW-WSW, may be remains of a fosse. There is a possible entrance (Wth 1.2m) at S and a further two gaps in the bank at SSE and ESE. The interior is grass-covered. The E portion of the interior is raised to compensate for the hillslope though there is still a gradual slope down towards E. There is a small field clearance cairn in the centre. There is a field boundary to W, immediately outside the bank. A complete bank is indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map, but by the 1914 OS 6-inch map the section at NW had been levelled. 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).
