What is recorded here

Indicated as a circular enclosure (diam. c. 30m) only on the OS 25-inch map. It is situated on top of a scrub-covered knoll that is towards the bottom of a NW-facing slope with a small NE-SW stream c. 50m to the NW. No feature is visible at ground level , although a low scarp on the W side was evident in the 1940s (OSFM). The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J. Moore (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2003). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of revision: 18 April, 2016
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.
