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

- SL026-027001: Ringfort - rath, https://heritagedata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=0c9eb9575b544081b0d296436d8f60f8&query=18a4b61b268-layer-9%2CSMRS%2CSL026-027001-. Prominently sited on top of a hill in undulating pasture with excellent views in all directions. A substantially raised circular area (31.2m N-S; 33.5m E-W) defined by two earthen banks and an intervening fosse. The inner bank (Wth 5-6m; int. 0.6m; ext. H 2m), evident E-N, is high externally with a slight internal lip. The interior is defined by a scarp elsewhere. The shallow intervening fosse (Wth 3m) is evident all round, marked by long grass. The outer bank can only be traced as a slight rise SW-NW. A gently ramped causeway (Wth 4.5m) across the fosse at ENE, corresponding with a slumped section of the bank, is the most likely the location of the entrance. The interior is slightly higher at the centre with a slight slope down to NE and E. Within it are three depressions or pits (SL026-027002-; SL026-027003-; SL026-027004-), all obscured by long grass, probably the three 'caves' recorded by O'Rorke ([1889], vol. 2, 458) in 'Rathrippon, near Collooney'. 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).

In a rath (SL026-027001-), adjacent to a disturbed slumped section (L c. 4m E-W) of the bank at N. A roughly circular unlined depression (diam. 3.5m; D 0.65m) with a second shallower depression (c. 3m N-S; 2.5m E-W; D 0.4m) 1.5m to SSW. Possibly one of the three 'caves' in the interior of the rath (see SL026-027003-; SL026-027004-) which were mentioned by O'Rorke ([1889], vol. 2, 458).

In a rath (SL026-027001-). A shallow unlined linear depression (Wth 1.5-2m; D 0.5m) extends for 10m from the bank at W into the interior of the rath. The sides of the depression are slumped and poorly defined. Possibly one of the three 'caves' in the interior of the rath (see SL026-027002-; SL026-027004-) which were mentioned by O'Rorke ([1889], vol. 2, 458).

In a rath (SL026-027001-), close to the inner face of the bank at SSE. A deep unlined oblong pit (5.5m NE-SW; 22.7m NW-SE; D 0.9m) with almost vertical sides, slumped at NE, and a flat base. A single large stone lies on the surface adjacent to the SE edge of the pit. Possibly one of three 'caves' in the interior of the rath (see SL026-027002-; SL026-027003-) which were mentioned by O'Rorke ([1889], vol. 2, 458).

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.
