Situated in pasture towards the bottom of a W-facing slope, with the headwaters of a small canalised S-N stream c. 50m to the W. It is depicted as a circular embanked enclosure (ext. diam. c. 40m) on the 1835 edition of the OS 6-inch map where it is described as a ‘Fort’ and it is depicted as a hachured D-shaped enclosure whose perimeter is incorporated into a field bank SW-N on the 1945 revision. No archaeological features is visible at ground level, but it is probably a rath.
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.
