The National Monuments Service's description
On the external side of Annagh graveyard (SL046-026001-) towards the E end of a scarp which forms the S boundary of the graveyard. Named 'Corn Kiln' on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. The remains consist of a semicircular grass-covered projection (max. dim. 2m E-W). No details of the structure can be seen though stones can be felt beneath the sod and bramble cover.
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).
