Situated on a rise with rock outcrop in a low-lying landscape. This is an overgrown oval area (int. dims c. 22m E-W; c. 15m N-S) defined by a stone spread (at SE: Wth 3.8m; int. H 0.6m; ext. H 2.95m) with intermittently visible facing-stones, separated by a fosse (at SE: Wth of base 3.2m; ext. D 0.8m) from an outer stone spread (at SE: Wth 5m; ext. H 0.8m) E-S-N. The source of a N-bound stream is just to the E and occupies the fosse N-E where there is no outer wall. There is a well-defined causewayed entrance (Wth 4.1m) at W, but a second entrance (Wth 2m) through both walls at SSE may be the original entrance.
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.
