What is recorded here

In an undulating landscape. Visible as a subcircular enclosure on aerial photographs (ACAP: V204/54-5). This is a grass-covered subcircular area (int. dims 24.5m E-W; 20.5m N-S) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 3-5m; int. H 0.2m; ext. H 0.45m) with intermittently visible facing-stones, which is rebuilt as a field wall N-E. 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
