Located on the W-facing slope of a hill in the Bonet river valley and towards the bottom of the steep NW-facing slope of Tullyskeherny. Indicated as a large circular enclosure (diam. c. 40m) described as a 'Fort' on the 1835 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and as an arc of a bank (C c. 35m) SW-N-NE on the NW side of a road on the 1945 ed. No feature is visible at ground level and the area is occupied by a house and garden. Archaeological testing (19E0624) on what would probably be its perimeter at N produced no related material (Hull 2019; excavations.ie 2019: 337).
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.
