What is recorded here
Just off the top of a rise at a bend in the Arrow or Unshin River. A depression (7.5m NW-SE; 3m NE-SW) with two lintels visible, one of which measures 1.3m x 0.8m. Described by O'Rorke (1878, 97) as 'greatly dilapidated' but consisting of 'two rude walls covered with flags stretched lengthwise from wall to wall'. A cashel (SL020-218004-) lies immediately to E and another (SL020-218002-) is c. 30m to SE.
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).
