What is recorded here

Located in pasture on the gentle SW-facing slope of a drumlin. A small oval enclosure (dims. c. 30m x c. 20m) is indicated as only on the 1907 edition of the OS 6-inch map, although the 25-inch map depicts a smaller embanked feature (diam. c. 15m). No archaeological feature is visible at ground level in pasture. 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. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of revision: 10 October 2019
A local fairy fort (ringfort/rath); wider significance not recorded.
