Located at the summit of a broad drumlin. It is depicted as a D-shaped area on the 1835 and 1907 editions of the OS 6-inch map. This is a grass-covered D-shaped area (dims 46.7m NE-SW; 24.6m NW-SE) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 2-3m; int. H 0.3-0.5m; ext. H 0.7-1m) with an external fosse or drain (Wth 1.5m; D 0.4m) NE-SE-SW. The monument is truncated by a NE-SW field bank at NW, but there is no evidence of the enclosure in the coniferous forest N of this feature. Nor can an original entrance be 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.
