What is recorded here

In pasture, on top of a low rise and conjoined to the SW edge of another mound barrow (SL040-149001-). A circular mound (4.8m NE-SW; 5m NW-SE; H 0.65m) with a gently domed profile, defined by a gapped kerb of upright stones (H 0.4-0.5m). The junction of the two mounds is barely perceptible and is marked by two kerbstones which barely project above the sod. The S and SE edges of both mounds are obscured by overgrowth. 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). Revised: P. Walsh Date of revision: 30 April 2009
