What is recorded here

In pasture, on high ground overlooking Ballinafad Bay in Lough Arrow. Indicated on the 1914 OS 6-inch map as a circular mound (diam. c. 10m). There are no visible remains of this mound. Its size and location, however, suggest a barrow. A boathouse has been built on the site. 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).

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed. The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
