The Irish form is given as Slí na gCorr on the OS Discovery map. However, this is clearly not the name of a mountain. It either refers to a track or is perhaps a corruption of Sliabh na nGabhar.   Sliabh na nGabhar is the 612th highest place in Ireland.

View? What view?
by Colin Murphy  2 Mar 2015
I'll have to take people's word about the views here, but on the day we did it there was a 100km gale, rain and near zero visibility, as you can probably see in the pic. The summit itself is a quite nondescript heathery mound. The approach from the east seemed a lot steeper than seems to be indicated on the OSI map.
