What is recorded here

Situated on a shelf of fairly level ground on the valley floor of the Bonet River, with a N-S section of the stream c. 200m to the W. Grass-covered oval mound (dims of base 20m NE-SW; 13.5m NW-SE; H 0.5m at NE to 1.6m at NW) with a rather flat top (dims 9.5m NE-SW; 5m NW-SE) that rises to a summit at SW. It may be natural. 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
