What is recorded here

Half-hidden grass and a shallow ditch mark the forgotten edge of a living field. People may have stood there before roads, bridges or written history, watching water or weather pass. The land kept the shape while memory left it behind.

Situated on the S-facing slope of a rise c. 230m from the E bank of a N-S section of the River Shannon. This is a grass-covered subcircular earthen platform (dims 28m E-W; 25m N-S; H 0.25m) which is barely traceable and defined by a slight external fosse (Wth 2.5m; D 0.1m) NW-N which is reduced to a berm (Wth 3.5m) elsewhere. 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 upload: 23 September 2008
