Situated in a low-lying position between drumlins with a small canalised SE-NW stream c. 10m to the SW. This is a subcircular area (dims 37m N-S; 33m E-W) defined by an overgrown earthen bank (Wth of base 5.5-10m; int. H 1.4-1.6m; ext. H 2m at E to 3.5m generally) which has been augmented with spoil. It has an overgrown external fosse (Wth of top 5-7.7m; Wth of base 2-3m; ext. D 1.2-1.5m) that has probably been deepened for drainage N-E-SW. There are modern or modernised entrances at W and SE, and it is now used as a haggard with farm sheds in the interior.
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.
