What is recorded here

Situated towards the top of the S-facing slope of a drumlin. This is a grass and rush-covered circular area (int. diam. 19.5m N-S; 18.7m E-W) defined by an overgrown stone spread (Wth 3-6m; int. H 0.5m; ext. H 1.2m) which is incorporated into a field bank W-N. The entrance (Wth 1.1m) is at NW. 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
