What is recorded here

Situated in an undulating landscape with rough pasture. This is a N-S fosse (Wth 2.8m; D 0.4m) with an earthen bank (Wth 3m) intermittently visible at the W side (L c. 250m). It is absent from a flat-bottomed valley immediately to the S for c. 300m but continues beyond that (LE005-009---), and it is continued c. 1km to the NNW (LE005-005---). 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
