- SL015-020003 Burial
Description
These burials were found by Wood-Martin (1888, 127-8) in a cist in the southern of the two contiguous stone circles the whole of which is described as follows: 'The stones forming it are small in size, and are paced in two impinging circles, the larger or northern one being about 20 feet in diameter, and the smaller about 10 feet. No remains of an interment were discoverable in the larger enclosure, but traces of a rude cist were apparent in the smaller circle (A) [on his plan], close to where it touches upon the larger one. The osseous remains were submitted to W. Frazer, F.R.C.S.I., who states that there were no evidences of adult interment, save two incisors (large size), and three molars, the rest all belonging to a child; the set of teeth (incisors not been shed) points to an age before seven, and the bones also appeared to belong to that age. There were six molars, three incisors (one canine), twelve uncut tops of teeth, fragments of child's ribs, two vertebrae, parts of the skull, one portion of temporal bone, with auditory process, finger- and toe-bones, forearm and leg, portions of pelvis - all in a fragmentary condition.'

- SL015-021 Ringfort - rath
Description
Situated on moderate S-facing lower slopes of Keelogyboy Mountain in upland pasture. Raised circular area (dims. 20m N-S; 19m E-W) defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 4.8m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1.7m). There is no fosse visible at ground level. From WSW-WNW a N-S orientated drystone field wall lies along the line of a removed portion of the rath bank. An E-W orientated drystone wall links to the N-S wall 4m to the NW of the rath and abuts the external side of the rath bank NNW-NNE. The area between the intersection of the two walls and the bank of the rath has been infilled with earth and stone. A break (Wth 1.6m) in the bank at S marks the position of the original entrance.
