What is recorded here

On top of a gentle rise. Grass-covered circular area (int. diam. 21m N-S) defined by a drystone wall (Wth 2.6m; int. H 1m at SE to 1.65m at W; ext. H 1.25m at E to 2.3m at W) built on the plinth of an older wall. The drystone wall is removed NE-E where the perimeter is evident as a slight scarp. 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. Date of upload: 23 September 2008
