Indicated

In undulating pasture, on a level terrace just below the top of a NE-SW ridge. A slightly sunken sod-covered track, flanked by substantial earthen field boundaries (Wth 2.2-4.6m; max. H 1.5m), is traceable for c. 500m in a roughly NE-SW line (Pl. 81). Roughly midway along its length, a side branch (Wth 2.8m) (SL025-112003-) extends (L c. 230m) downslope to NW to a church and graveyard (SL025-112001-; SL025-112002-) in Killoran North. The average width of the track is c. 8m but it widens to 12.7m at the branch junction. The side branch is flanked on its S side by a field boundary and on the N side is defined by a scarp (H 0.6m) dug into the side of the ridge. A rectangular enclosure (SL025-121----) lies c. 40m to NW and a rath (SL025-120----) c. 40m to S. 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).
