Indicated but not described on the 1835 ed. of the OS 6-inch map, and with houses c. 150m and 200m to the NE only on the 1910 ed. where it is described as a 'Sweat Ho.'. It is located towards the bottom of a NW-facing slope on the S side of Glenfarne valley. This is a rebuilt sweathouse (int. diam. 1.35m; H 1.85m) with a paved floor and an entrance (Wth 0.55m; H 0.71m) at W, but it lacks a mound.
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.
