Situated in reclaimed pasture on the summit of a N-S drumlin ridge. It not marked as an antiquity on any OS 6-inch map but is suggested by a westward curve in a N-S field bank on the 1944 revised edition. It is also visible as a circular feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP: H 14/13). This is a grass-covered D-shaped area (dims 35m NE-SW; 32m NW-SE) defined by a slight scarp (H 0.2m). The monument was truncated slightly by an E-W field bank at S, which has now been removed. A fosse or entrance cannot be detected, but this was undoubtedly 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.
