Situated in a generally level area of a gently undulating pasture landscape. 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 grass-covered area (diam. 30m N-S; 30m E-W) defined by a low scarp (at N: Wth c. 2.3m; H c. 0.15m; at S: Wth 2m; H 0.25m), with traces of a fosse (at N: Wth of top 5.1m; Wth of base Wth 1.2m; ext. D 0.1m) SW-W-NNE. There is no visible entrance. Outside the perimeter and curving around it SW-NW are the remnants of a field bank and hedge while a NW-SE field bank and hedge is just to the NE. The Jamestown Canal, which cuts off a loop of the River Shannon to the N is c. 110m to the S, and the W shore of Lough Nanoge (dims c. 400m E-W; c. 300m N-S) on the W bank a N-S section of the River Shannon is c. 300m to the E.
