Towards the bottom of a N-facing slope in Glencar valley. Grass and fern-covered circular area (int. diam. 45m N-S; 43.5m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth c. 3m; int. H 0.4-0.9m; ext. H 1-1.5m) and hedge SE-SW, which is reduced to a scarp and hedge (H 1.5m at W to 4m at N, downslope) elsewhere. There is an external fosse (Wth 3.3m; D 0.4m) E-S-W with a causeway (Wth 7m) across it at SSE. The perimeter is slightly curtailed by a field bank at NE.
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.
