What is recorded here

Towards the bottom of the N-facing slope of a drumlin, c. 100m from the S shore of the triangular Lough Inch (dims c. 500m NW-SE; c. 300m NE-SW). Described in 1983 as a circular area (diam. 28m) defined by a low scarp with an outer drain NNW-NE, and by a band (Wth 3m) of moss elsewhere (SMR file). No feature is now visible at ground level in pasture with some scrub. Raths (RO017-174----) and (RO017-175----) are c. 150m to the SW and SSW.
