What is recorded here
Sepulchral Stone Circle is an enclosure in Magheraghanrush OR Deer Park, County Sligo, Ireland. It occupies a level terrace near the base of a slight southwest-facing slope within a mature coniferous forestry clearing. The 1912 Ordnance Survey map depicted a roughly circular area about fifteen metres across, although the 1837 edition omitted the site entirely. Heather, briars and rhododendron now cover the ground, leaving no visible surface trace.

The area is overgrown with heather, briars and some rhododendron. No visible surface trace at ground level.
