In the SW quadrant of a rath (SL032-136001-). A passage (L c. 5m), roofed by large stone lintels, is visible for c. 5m extending NE-SW. At the SW end the passage turns abruptly to NW where there is a small rectangular chamber (dims. 3m x 1.8m). The chamber is stone-lined with a corbelled roof topped by large stone lintels. 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).
