What is recorded here

On a low dry rise, in otherwise flat poorly drained ground. Kesh Corann, crowned by its cairn (SL040-008----), is visible in the distance to E. A low circular platform (11.4m E-W; H 0.3m at NE), with a slightly concave top, is defined by a fosse (Wth 3.7m) and an external bank (Wth 3.7m; int. H 0.2-0.5m; ext. H 0.3m). Moss-covered stones are visible barely protruding from the perimeter of the central platform, and from the external bank. A gap (Wth 3.8m) at N is approached from N by a linear depression (L c. 7m; Wth 3.8m). The overall diameter of the external bank is 21m. A ring-barrow (SL038-085----) lies c. 600m to ENE. 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).
