Situated in a low-lying position on the floor of Glencar valley with the summits of drumlins c. 300m to the W and c. 250m to the NE. Circular grass-covered area (int. diam. 24.5m NE-SW; 24.1m NW-SE) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 2m; int. H 0.3m; ext. H 1.3m) at W which is reduced to a scarp (H 1m) elsewhere. There is a hedge on the perimeter but there is no visible fosse and the original entrance is not identified. A field bank overlies the perimeter at W and there are old quarries outside the monument to the N and E.
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.
