What is recorded here

Located towards the top of the gentle NE-facing slope of col between drumlin just to the SE and NW and in a coniferous forest. This is a subcircular platform (dims 28.5m N-S; 25m E-W; H 0.6-1m) defined by a fosse (Wth of top 3.3-5.4m; Wth of base 2-3.5m; D 0.4-1m). An original entrance is not identified. The perimeter is disturbed at E by a roadway and truncated slightly at NW by a field bank. 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
