What is recorded here

Located on top of a drumlin. This is a grass and reed-covered circular area (diam. 25m N-S; 25m E-W) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 5-6m; max. int. H 0.25m; max. ext. H 0.6m at NW) with an external band of reeds (Wth 2-3m). The original entrance is not identified. The perimeter is slightly truncated by a NE-SW field bank at S. 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
