What is recorded here

In pasture, on a gently undulating NE-facing slope. According to MacDonagh (1936, 198), there is a tradition of a church in 'a field called Killack, the church of the flagstones. The church, however, has totally disappeared. The people of the locality say that the field was an old burial ground.' Here, the outline of a large circular enclosure (SL033-167002-), possibly an ecclesiastical enclosure, can still be traced at ground level, but there is no visible trace of a church (SL033-167----) or graveyard (SL033-167001-). 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.
