What is recorded here

Located on top of a drumlin in a coniferous forest. This is a D-shaped platform (dims 21m E-W; 18m N-S) defined by a scarp (H 0.2-0.6m) but curtailed by field banks at S and W. There is no evidence of a bank, fosse or entrance, but it is probably a rath. 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
