The National Monuments Service's description
Wood-Martin (1887-8, 272) recorded the discovery, during ploughing, of a cist containing an urn in John Coleman's field in the 1880s. Not precisely located. It is one of three cists known from Rathbarran townland (see SL025-051002-; SL025-071002-). (Waddell 1990, 133)
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).
