Located towards the bottom of the NW-facing slope of Mong Hill. This is a grass-covered oval area (dims 33m E-W; 27m N-S) defined by an overgrown earthen bank which is incorporated into a field bank N-E (Wth 2m; int. H 0.45m; ext. H 0.65m) but reduced to a scarp (H 0.4m) elsewhere. There are traces of a fosse (Wth of base 1.8m; D 0.15m) at W. There is a gateway at ESE, which is probably a development of the original 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.
