On top of a knoll. Marked only on the 1907 ed. of the OS 6 inch map where it is described in gothic lettering as 'Laghta'. This is a grass-covered oval area (int. dims 26m N-S; 22.5m E-W) defined by a stone-covered scarp surmounted by a field wall. The original entrance is not identified. A hollow (dims 4.4m x 2.2m; D 0.4m) inside the perimeter at S may be a souterrain.
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.
