Soil is overturned with force somewhere in Ireland (5)

I believe the answer is:

sligo

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'somewhere in ireland' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'soil is overturned with force' is the wordplay.
'is overturned with' indicates anagramming the letters.
'force' becomes 'g'.
'soil' anagrammed with 'g' can make 'SLIGO'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sligo that I've seen before include "Irish county and town" , "County of NW Eire" , "County of northwest Ireland" , "Ir. town by Donegal bay" , "Town in north-west Ireland" .)
