Situated on the S-facing slope of a drumlin. This is a circular overgrown area (diam. 30m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (at N: Wth 6m; int. H 0.4m; ext. H 1m), flat-bottomed fosse (at N: Wth of top 6.2-6.8m; base 1.5-2m) and outer bank (Wth 7m; H over fosse 1.6m; ext. H 0.5m), all of which survives NW-NE (upslope). The inner bank is reduced to a scarp (H 1-1.4m at S) with traces of the fosse (at S: Wth 4m; D 0.6m) elsewhere. The original entrance is not identified.
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.
