Situated on the SW-facing slope of Sheemore Hill. This is a grass-covered circular area (int. diam. 35.5m N-S) defined by a grass-covered stone spread with intermittently visible facing-stones SE-W-NE, which is best preserved at SW (Wth including collapse 3.8m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 0.85m). There is an outer fosse (Wth 3.5m; D 0.35m) and an outer bank (Wth 2.8m; H 0.1m) NW-NE. The enclosing feature is destroyed NE-SE and the monument is overlain by a small rectangular stone-walled field.
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.
