Located towards the N end of a N-S drumlin ridge. A circular embanked enclosure described as a ‘Fort’ is depicted on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map and a hachured feature with a water-tank is represented on the 1945 revision. This is an overgrown subcircular area (dims 36m N-S; 31.2m E-W) defined by a fosse (at N: Wth of top 3m; Wth of base 1.5m; int. D 1.8m; ext. D 1.4m) with a water tank at the centre. There is no visible bank or identifiable 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.
