Situated on a flat-topped, grass-covered mound (diam. of top 10m; H 0.4-0.6m) at the S end of the N-S ridge of Mong Hill. It is described as a ‘Windmill Stump’ in italic lettering on the 1835 and 1911 editions of the OS 6-inch map, so it was derelict by 1835. This is a circular feature (int. diam. 3.3m) defined by a masonry wall (Wth 0.9m) which does not survive beyond the foundation courses (H 0.4m) except at S (C 4m; H 2.6m). A gap (Wth 1m) at W may be a doorway.
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.
