South Sligo was a parliamentary constituency in Ireland, which returned one Member of Parliament (MP) to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1885 to 1922.

Prior to the 1885 general election the area was part of the two-seat Sligo constituency. From 1922 it was not represented in the UK Parliament.

This constituency comprised the southern part of County Sligo, in particular the baronies of Coolavin, Corran and Tirerrill, and part of the Barony of Leyny.

Sexton is also elected MP for Belfast North and opts to sit there, causing a by-election.

Kennedy resigns, causing a second by-election.
