Located at the NE edge of Carrickevy Lough (max. dims c. 450m NE-SW; c. 240m NW-SE). It is depicted as a small subrectangular island (dims c. 15m x c. 15m) on the 1911 edition of the OS 6-inch map. A circular earthen mound (diam. c. 8m; H 1m) is covered in scrub and surrounded by reeds, but there is no visible surface evidence of artificial construction.
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.
