Situated on a shelf of rock outcrop in a low-lying landscape with a higher shelf c. 20m to the N and a lower basin c. 20m to the S. This is a grass-covered subcircular area (int. dims 22m NE-SW; 19.4m NW-SE) defined by a grass-covered stone spread (Wth 2-4.4m; H 0.3m) with the intermittently visible facing-stones of a wall (Wth 1-1.2m). The entrance (Wth 3.8m) is at ESE. Archaeological testing (06E1191) by Martin A. Timoney c. 70m to the E at the closest point produced no related material (excavations.ie: 2006:1216).
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.
