Located on the SW-facing slope of a low drumlin and c. 300m from the shore of a NE-SW extension of Lough Eidin. This is a grass and rush-covered subcircular area (int. dims 29m N-S; 25.5m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth 3.5m; int. H 0.35m; ext. H 1.1m) which is reduced to a scarp (H 0.6m) SE-S, and an external fosse (Wth 2.1m; D 0.35m) E-W-N. The original entrance is not identified. Archaeological testing (02E0483) c. 110m to the NW failed to produce any related material (Read 2004).
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.
