What is recorded here

Situated on a gentle SE-facing slope. It is visible as a slight circular feature on aerial photographs (GSIAP: G, 156-7). This is a grass and reed-covered subcircular area (int. dims 21m E-W; 18m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (Wth 6.5m; H 0.35m), which has been removed at E. There is no visible fosse or entrance. 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

This remains an important historical record, but the official description says the monument is no longer visible or has been destroyed.

The monument record does not grant public access. Check the route and ask the landowner before entering private land.
