What is recorded here

Situated in reclaimed pasture on top of a small drumlin. This is a grass-covered ircular platform (diam. 30m N-S; 28m E-W) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.4-0.8m), and slight traces of a fosse NW-NNE. The entrance (Wth 2.6m) is a slight dip in the perimeter at SE. 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
