Located at the N-facing foot of Sheemore Hill in an area of rock outcrop. This is a grass-covered circular area (int. diam. 35m N-S; 32m E-W) defined by a grass-covered stone spread with intermittently visible facing-stones (Wth 3.95m; H 0.25m at N). The original entrance is not identified. A D-shaped enclosure (LE027-05002-) lies to the SE and a possible souterrain (LE027-050003-), marked on the 1911 edition of the OS 6-inch map as 'Cave', might be represented in an oval depressions inside the perimeter N-E.
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.
