Situated In a slight basin in an undulating landscape at the NE foothills of Thur Mountain. A section of a linear earthwork extending NW-SE (L c. 700m) survives, apart from an interruption (L c. 100m) at a small lake. It consists of a fosse (Wth 2.4m; D 0.35m) flanked by earthen banks to the NE (Wth 4m; H 0.55m) and to the SW (Wth 3m: H 0.4m). It extends almost as far as another small lake (diam. c. 70m) and is continued c. 500m to the ESE (LE009-001----) and c. 2.6 km to the NW (LE008-009---).
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.
