Located In improved pasture on a slight WSW-facing slope. It was first identified by Susan Curran as part of an M.A. thesis with University College Dublin using a LiDAR survey dataset commissioned by Leitrim County Council and the National Roads Authority. It is also fainltly visible on Bing images (c. 2013). This is a D-shaped area (dims 45m E-W; 44m N-S) defined by an earthen bank (at ESE: Wth of base 5.2m; Wth of top 1.3m; int. H 0.35m; ext. H 0.45m) and outer fosse (at ESE: Wth of top 3.8m; Wth of base 0.7m; D 0.35m) N-SE, which is reduced to a scarp (Wth 1.9m; H 0.25m) SE-S. A straight scarp (Wth 6m; H 1.55m) on the W side suggests that it was truncated here while the fosse was anciently back-filled NW-N. The original entrance is not identified.
