What is recorded here

Marked only on an OS 6-inch map of 1864, it is located on an E-facing slope in an undulating landscape on the valley floor of the N-S Bonet River. This is a grass-covered circular area (int. diam. 19m) defined by an overgrown stone spread (Wth 2m; H 0.2-0.3m) which is reduced to a scarp E-SE. The original entrance is not identified. 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
