Indicated

In pasture, on top of a low ridge. A raised circular area (34m N-S) defined by a scarp (H 1.2m). An external flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 6m; D 0.7m) is evident S-W and a band of rushes (Wth 5m) probably indicates the line of the fosse W-NE. A hole has been dug into the scarp face at NW. Cultivation ridges are evident in the interior. There is a Man-made underground passage (SL031-010002-) to W of centre. The rath is covered by grass and some hawthorn bushes. A field boundary skirts the fosse S-WSW. The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Sligo' compiled by Ursula Egan, Elizabeth Byrne, Mary Sleeman with Sheila Ronan and Connie Murphy (Dublin Stationery Office, 2005).
