What is recorded here

Located at the crest of the E-facing slope of a drumlin on the E shore of Lough Allen. This is an overgrown circular area (diam. c. 30m) defined by the slight remains of a collapsed wall (Wth 1m; H 0.2m) N-NE which has been removed elsewhere or is covered with spoil. 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

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
