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

- SL044-041: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL044-041----. In pasture, on a N-facing slope and just below the summit of a ridge. A roughly circular area (32m E-W; 28m N-S) defined NW-E by a scarp (H 1.45m) with a slight internal lip (Wth c. 2m), ESE-S by a field boundary wall (Wth 0.7m; H 0.8m) and SSW-W by an earthen bank (Wth c. 4m; int. H 1.3; ext. H 1.5m) topped with remnants of a field boundary wall. The scarp has a vertical face with traces of stone facing, probably a relatively recent modification. An external fosse (Wth c. 4m; D 0.8m) is evident S-N and E-ESE. It is quite well defined S-SW where it is cut into rising ground but is visible W-NW only as a shallow depression (Wth c. 2.5m), petering out at N and also E-ESE where a very slight depression can be seen. The N portion of the interior is raised to compensate for the hillslope; the S half slopes down very slightly to S. Abutting the outer edge of the fosse at NW is a low triangular flat-topped rise (4m NE-SW; 4m NW-SE; H 0.5m). The bank and fosse at S are quite densely covered in brambles and bushes. Occasional sycamores and ash trees grow elsewhere around the perimeter. 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

Works at or in relation to a recorded monument need two months' written notice to the National Monuments Service (National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994, section 12).

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.
