Located in improved pasture toward the NE end of the crest of a NE-SW ridge. 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. This is a circular area (diam. 34m NE-SW; 34m NW-SE) defined by a scarp that is best preserved (at NE: Wth 2m; H 0.4m) SW-N-NE but declines to a slighter scarp (at SE: Wth 1m; H 0.1m) NE-SW. There is an outer fosse (at NE: Wth of top 5.2m; Wth of base 1.8m; ext. D 0.15m) and external bank (at NE: Wth of base 4.6m; Wth of top 2m; ext. H 0.15m) W-NE, but the fosse is also traceable NE-SE. There is no visible entrance. The monument is overlain by a NE-SW field bank and hedge towards the edge at SE.
