In pasture, on nearly level ground, on the W-facing slope of a ridge. A raised circular area (27.5m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 3m; int. H 0.9m; ext. H 1.4m) SSW-SE and by a scarp (H 1m) elsewhere. An external dry flat-bottomed fosse (Wth 3m; D 0.2m) is evident SSW-NNE. A field boundary skirts the bank at NE. Indicated on the 1838 OS 6-inch map as an oval embanked area (c. 50m E-W; c. 30m N-S). 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).
