One for the completists only, though it is in a roadside field and very easy to find.

Some stones of the southern arm of the court are the best part of what remains here. The view is towards Sligo Bay with Maeve’s cairn on Knocknarea visible off in the distance to the left.

Very scant remains of a court tomb below the southern flank of Cope’s (I kid you not) mountain.
