This is a grass-covered circular platform (diam. 23m N-S; 23m E-W; H 0.3m) defined by a slight fosse (Wth 1.95m; D 0.15m), intermittently visible, especially at N and S. The original entrance is not identified. Rath (LE028-012----) is c. 100m to the S. The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Leitrim' compiled by Michael J.
