Situated on a low E-W ridge of rock outcrop. This is a D-shaped overgrown area (dims c. 26m NE-SW; c. 26m NW-SE) defined by a severe slope (H 4-6m) down at the straight SE side and by an earth and stone bank (Wth 5m; ext. H 0.6-1m) SE-S, which is reduced to a slight scarp elsewhere. There is no visible fosse or entrance. There is a square clearance cairn (dims 3.5m x 3.5m; H 0.4m) on exposed rock outcrop at the centre.
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.
