What is recorded here
Situated just off the W-facing crest of a small N-S drumlin ridge. This is an overgrown circular earthen platform (diam. c. 34m; H 1.6m at E) defined by a fosse (at E: Wth of top 3m; Wth of base 1m; ext. D 0.6m). The perimeter is slightly truncated by a NE-SW road bank curving around it at SE. The original entrance is not identified.
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.
