Situated in reclaimed pasture in a low-lying position. It is not marked on any maps but it is visible as a faint circular feature on aerial photographs (OSAP: 4/1008-9). This is a D-shaped grass-covered area (dims 34m N-S; 22.3m E-W) defined by slight traces of an earthen bank (Wth c. 4.5m; H 0.1-0.2m) SE-W-NW which is separated by a fosse (Wth of base 3.5-5.5m) from an outer bank (Wth 1.5-4m; H 0.1m) SE-W-NW. The perimeter is reduced to a scarp down to the interior (H 0.2m) NW-NE, and the monument is cut by a N-S stream and road bank at E. The original entrance is not identified. Although very eroded 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.
