Close to the N end of flat-topped Knocknashee Mountain and c. 120m NE of and slightly downslope from another possible passage tomb (SL032-013002-) and within a hillfort (SL032-013001-). This is a circular cairn (diam. 28m; H 1m) towards the NW edge of the flat top of which a heap of stones has been formed into a cairn-like pile (diam. 15m; H 1.5m). This possible passage tomb lies at the N limit of the possible Neolithic settlement (SL032-013004-).
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).
