O'Rourke refers to a 'silver and lead mine . . . upon the very Harbour-mouth of Sligo, "in a little demy-island commonly called Coney Island", this last being the only one of the three mentioned by Boate, in his 'Natural History of Ireland', as if the others were unknown to him.' (O'Rourke 1890, vol. 1, 15).
The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
The map shows the centre of the officially named townland area, not the monument. The government record does not identify the exact monument point.
