Situated on the summit of a low drumlin hill. The NW site is very poorly preserved. It comprises an ill-defined low circular earthen mound (int. diam. c. 10.5m) enclosed by vague traces of a bank with internal fosse. Original entrance may have been at E. From ESE-S-SSW its bank merges with that of the SE barrow. The SE site comprises a low circular earthen platform (int. diam. 6.6m; H 0.5m) enclosed by a low but well-defined earthen bank with internal narrow fosse. Break in bank with accompanying causeway at E represents original entrance.
The above description is derived from the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Cavan' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1995). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research.
