Located towards the S end of a N-S drumlin ridge. This is an overgrown circular area (diam. c. 30m) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 4.2m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.9m) and external fosse (Wth of top 4.6m; Wth of base 1.6m; D 0.2m). There is an entrance (Wth 2m), probably not original, at N.
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.
