What is recorded here

In undulating pasture, broken by limestone outcrops; immediately outside the SE edge of Cartronhugh graveyard (SL021-025002-). A rectangular structure (ext. 9.7m N-S; 5.5m E-W) defined by a sod-covered stone bank (Wth c. 1m; H 0.4m). According to tradition, this is the remains of a church. The interior is engulfed by blackthorn bushes and brambles. There is a souterrain (SL021-025003-) in the S half of the interior. 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).
