Barrow is a barrow, unclassified in Corradoo East,corradoo West, County Sligo, Ireland. Wood-Martin wrote in 1882 that a sepulchral mound at Corradoo commemorated fallen warriors from a great battle, though its exact location remains unknown. A tradition of that battle in Bearnaigh Lamhach appeared in Curradooey records by 1836.

According to Wood-Martin (1882, 200), there is a 'sepulchural mound' at Corradoo said to commemorate the fallen in some great battle. The exact location of the mound is not known. In 1836 the tradition of a great battle in Bearnaigh Lamhach in 'Curradooey' was recorded (OSL, 416). 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).
